This module adds a "Save & Edit" button to node editing pages, allowing users to save changes and immediately return to the edit form instead of the node's viewing page. It can be configured for specific content types and offers options for automatically unpublishing nodes or quickly publishing unpublished ones.

Save & Edit is a module that provides a very simple, yet welcome function to node editing pages.

The module simply adds a button titled "Save & Edit" on node types selected in the admin section. Using this extra button when saving a node will simply redirect back to the edit form rather than returning to the node page, or the /admin/content/node page.

I've felt like this was needed more than once, and as simple as the module is, provides a very much needed feature to core node editing. I find myself frequently creating long, drawn out nodes where I have the need to save the node regularly to avoid losing changes/edits, and then it takes an additional click to get back to the edit form to continue.

Features

  • Creates a "Save & Edit" button on node pages.
  • Allows you to choose what node types to use the feature on.
  • Allows you to customize the text for the "Save & Edit" button to whatever you like
  • Allows you to choose to use the Auto-Unpublish feature, which will mark nodes as unpublished when you use the Save & Edit button. This can either be turned off, used on ALL nodes/clicks of the Save & Edit button, or can also be only used on NEW nodes. This was a much needed addition.
  • For ANY unpublished nodes, a new "Publish" button will allow you to quickly Save & Publish a node that was previously marked unpublished. This feature will be hidden on published nodes, and new nodes with the "Published" option checked by default.
  • Allows to hide each of the default "Save", "Preview" and "Delete" buttons
