Protection of Draft Newsletters for multiple editors

Hi Christopher,

Many thanks for the continued development and support of this great tool. I may have missed a config option but could not find a way of protecting draft newsletters from being edited by multiple editors at the same time and subsequent loss of work in the race to save. Has it been considered in the past to provide something similar to the general Joomla article edit locking?

 

Hello Craig and thank you for posting.

Is this request about front-end newsletter editing or only for the back-end?

The database columns required to achieve this do exist, but it is not fully implemented.

Thanks again.

Hi again Craig.

I implemented this feature and it will be included in the next release of NS Pro.
It now includes an option in the menu item to lock newsletters while they are edited.
Back-end locking now also works like Joomla content.

Let me know if you would like to try it before official release.

Hi Christopher, sorry I had not spotted your updates on my request (I need to work out how to watch forum threads). Yes it was the front end editing that I was interested in.

Thanks very much for implementing this feature and look forward to the next release.
