Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about ETBS Edit Conflict Guard

That built-in notice is informational only; it does not stop a second user from saving. This plugin adds an actual block: if someone else holds the lock, clicking Save/Update/Publish is refused and the user sees a modal explaining why (in Quick Edit the same reason appears inline instead), rather than silently overwriting the other person's changes.

Locks release automatically once their expiration time (set under Settings > Edit Conflict Guard) passes without the holder's edit screen sending a Heartbeat, for example if their browser tab was closed without saving. If you need it cleared immediately, an administrator can open Settings > Edit Conflict Guard and use the Force Release button next to that post in the "Currently Locked Posts" table.

Not currently. Locks are per-site; there is no cross-site awareness in a Multisite network.

No — the post was not moved. This happens only in the Block Editor: WordPress core shows an optimistic success notice before the server response arrives, and the server has already rejected the request. Reloading the post list will show the post still in its original status.

Yes, deliberately. If the same account opens the same post in a second tab, window or device, the second one is blocked from saving just like any other user would be. The plugin can tell the two belong to the same account, but that does not prove it is the same person, so it applies the same rule to everyone. Close the other edit screen and save again.
