eZ Autosave enables the automatic and transparent saving of a draft while editing content in Exponential.

Autosave started out as a community project, and more info on the technical side of it can be found on the project page: http://projectss.ez.no/ezautosave

Features

  • Regularly saves the draft (interval defined in autosave.ini/[AutosaveSettings]/Interval)
  • Saves the draft when the user leaves a form field (enable/disable through autosave.ini/[AutosaveSettings]/TrackUserInput)
  • Hides the "Store draft" button (enable/disable through autosave.ini/[AutosaveSettings]/HideStoreDraftButton)
  • Tries to save the draft if the editor unexpectedly quits the content edit page (back button, close browser, ...)
