Hi,
Currently indeed the change-note on a page-edit is an optional field.
It is not hard to make it a required field; if you are ready to modify a
JSP.
Here is how:
1)
Open /templates/default/editors/plain.jsp
2)
Add a 'required' attribute to the CHANGENOTE input field
<input class="form-control" type="text" name="changenote"
id="changenote" size="80" maxlength="80"
placeholder="<fmt:message key='editor.plain.changenote'/>"
required
value="${changenote}" />
3)
Add a 'formnovalidate' attribute to the CANCEL button of the editor.
(otherwise you cannot cancel the form without giving a 'bogus' change-note
:-) )
<input class="btn btn-danger pull-right" type="submit" name="cancel"
accesskey="q"
value="<fmt:message key='editor.plain.cancel.submit'/>"
title="<fmt:message key='editor.plain.cancel.title'/>"
formnovalidate />
Good luck !
Could you log a JIRA improvement request, so we can consider to make this a
JSPWIKI property.
Best regards,
dirk
