Page Lock helps prevent content loss by placing a temporary lock on pages being edited on the Kirby's Panel. It supports multilingual sites out of the box by locking each page language individually.

A helpful message with editor's name is displayed on locked pages. Additionally, the plugin protects the content by:

• Removing the save button
• Disabling keyboard shortcuts
• Making input fields read-only
• Disabling drag-and-drop sorting
• Removing action buttons
• Removing the files widget

Unfortunately Page Lock can't 'disable' all third-party custom fields. Be aware some these custom fields may still be edited even when the page is locked.

• Kirby 2.3.2+
• PHP 5.4+

Download the files and place them inside site/plugins/page-lock.

Kirby's command line interface is the easiest way to install the Page Lock plugin:

$ kirby plugin:install pedroborges/kirby-page-lock

Updating couldn't be any easier, simply run:

$ kirby plugin:update pedroborges/kirby-page-lock

You can add the Page Lock as a Git submodule.

$ cd your/project/root
$ git submodule add https://github.com/pedroborges/kirby-page-lock.git site/plugins/page-lock
$ git submodule update --init --recursive
$ git commit -am "Add Page Lock plugin"

$ cd your/project/root
$ git submodule foreach git checkout master
$ git submodule foreach git pull
$ git commit -am "Update Page Lock plugin"
$ git submodule update --init --recursive

Due to a limitation in Kirby's Panel, this plugin makes use of Form Fields in order to load a script on each page while it's being edited.

To make the installation process smoother, Page Lock registers a clone of the title field. Since most pages define a title field on the blueprint, you may not even need to do any configuration on your own.

title:
  label: Title
  type: title

When using the title field you can disable Page Lock on a single blueprint by setting the lock field option to false:

title:
  label: Title
  type: title
  lock: false

If you need to globally disable the title field that ships with Page Lock, set the page-lock.title option to false.

In case you don't need a title field on your blueprint, you can use the lock global field to enable the plugin on it.

lock: lock

The above is a shorthand for:

lock:
  type: lock

The following options can be set in your /site/config/config.php:

Time in seconds that opened pages notify the plugin they are still being edited. This affects the time the page is unlock after the editor leaves it. Defaults to 10 seconds.

c::set('page-lock.interval', 10);

Enables/disables Page Lock clone title field. Defaults to true.

c::set('page-lock.title', true);

First make sure there at least two registered users. In your browser, login into Kirby's Panel with user1 then navigate to a page that either has a title or lock field defined in the corresponding blueprint. Login with user2 using a private window or another browser then open the same page. You should see a red box saying: user1 is editing this page.
