About this talk
This talk explores the evolution of the node editing experience in Drupal, specifically focusing on upcoming improvements in Drupal 8. The speakers discuss the challenges content editors face with the node UI and share insights gained from maintaining the Workbench Moderation module, which modifies the front-end node form and the node_save() routine. Key topics include the functionality of the node preview button versus saving drafts, the use of published/create revision/sticky checkboxes, and the relationship between fields and non-field elements. The session also covers best practices for saving drafts post-publication, enforcing new revisions, and crafting default revision messages.
