SP Pages always Locked and Checked Out

Asked by Bayard 3 years ago Last activity 1 year ago

Is there a way to disable SP Pages from being locked. The same admin users edit a SP Page then don't log out completly. Then 2 days later they come back and try to edit via front end and the page is locked.

How to disable the checked-out feature? or why does it stay locked for 2 days. I can see maybe 30 min but not hours or days.

I know this is a joomla pesty issue for years, but does SP Builder have a way to disable it.

I've found 3rd party plugins that auto checkin but they only work with articles and modules.

Thanks

Thanks and I was really looking for how to get rid of the locks.

Could be the worst thing Joomla has ever thought of. I know it's there to prevent 2 people from editing the same page, but why does it stay locked for weeks? Its kind of the cure is worst then the disease :)

It should unlock when the session expires or something.

I did find a plugin that auto unlocks all locked pages every 2 hours.

just go to "global unlock", unlock the sp Page Builder tables and then clear the cache and go back to working normally
