Rename Save Button to Publish and make Save as Draft option more visible #1135
Comments
Good points, Lindsey – didn't think about that. Considering this FR is mainly relevant for Entries, what about (instead of changing the default label) we had the option to set a custom label for the Save button in the Section settings? It might be overkill, really – I can't think of a use case where neither "Save" nor "Publish" would be appropriate. Maybe Craft could be smart about it? If the entry isn't disabled and has its own URLs, the button would read "Publish". In all other cases, it'd read "Save". Could be confusing though. Come to think of it, just moving "Save as Draft" to its own button below or beside "Save" (like the OP suggests) would probably solve the whole issue, really. |
Personally, I disagree with this request... there are tons of times that entries aren't really things getting "published". Save is a far nicer generic term, IMO. "Publish" would be confusing in the following circumstances:
Just my two cents. :) And as noted in this SE thread, there's a very easy workaround for folks who want a "Publish" button: http://craftcms.stackexchange.com/questions/12381/change-save-entry-to-publish-possible |
I concur. "Save" is ambiguous, "Publish" would be way clearer. |
Craft 3.2 will automatically create a draft as you start editing content, and autosave it as you continue editing, so there is no “Save” button anymore—just “Update entry”, which is the new equivalent of the old “Publish draft” button. So this FR isn’t really relevant anymore. |
Save doesn't say what it does. Does it publish an entry? Does it save a draft? For those who are used to saving drafts they could accidently publish an entry by clicking on save, especially since you have to click a tiny dropdown to open the "Save as Draft" menu. "Save as Draft" should be a separate button before the publish button to give you the option to either save a draft or publish an entry...
