Saving pages without reloading

[Niko-r]

Hello

I'm currently writing pages with a lot of content.
I like to frequently save my work, but each time I'm saving the whole page is reloaded, and I'm forced to scroll down the editor (again and again..) to find the location I was editing just before..
This is kind of frustrating and waste of time...

So it would be great that when we save pages, the saving process wouldn't reload the whole administration page.

Thank's ! :-)

I came here looking for this. I don't consider it a bug, since we can still edit from our favorite text editor if it really becomes an issue, and I don't know what the scope of the admin editor is. However, I would be excited about this as a feature. 👍

I will investigate!

Hi @superlou, it is indeed an enhancement request ;-)

Thanks for looking into this @rhukster

Have an AJAX save would also be nice, because if the connection to the server is lost or the credentials time out, you lose what you were working on. I just lost some stuff because I forgot that I hadn't logged in recently (computer was previously in standby).

Perhaps a quick hack solution is set the caret position in local storage on save and reload it on editor load

We have slated this enhancement for Grav 2 when we will have a more app-like and state-maintaining admin plugin.
