Embed collection forms with multiple save buttons

[cabsil]

I have an Entity A which has a many to many association to Entity B. I want to use embedded form to create B entities on the same form. I followed the solution explained here : https://stackoverflow.com/questions/40007362/symfony-easyadmin-one-to-many-form.

I succeeded but when I am adding a new B entity, one save button is added together with a "back to listing" link.

This is happening only when I am adding B entity on a new A entity or when I am updating a A entity without any B entity. The behaviour is much better when I update a A entity with a least one B entity.

Is this the normal behaviour or is this an issue ?

I analyzed the problem further and found the reason why I got the save button.

In bootstrap_3_layout.html.twig, we have the following code block :
{% block form_rest %} {{- parent() -}} {% if form.parent is empty %} <div class="row"> <div class="col-xs-12 form-actions"> <div class="form-group"> <div id="form-actions-row"> {{- block('item_actions') -}} </div> </div> </div> </div> {% endif %} {% endblock form_rest %}

It looks like the condition {% if form.parent is empty %} doesn't return the same result in case of creating a new A Entity as editing an existing A Entity with at least one B Entity.

@cabsil thanks for reporting! I recently merge two bug fixes related to this but I haven't released a stable version yet. Could you please check if they solve this issue for you? Thanks!

That's good news. Thanks.

Well I am quite new to symfony. Could you tell how I can update the easy admin bundle to test you fixes ?

I finally modified the bootstrap layout according to #1915 and it was enough to solve my problem.

When do you plan to release a version ?

I'm closing this issue because we're starting a new phase in the history of this bundle (see #2059). We've moved it into a new GitHub organization and we need to start from scratch: no past issues, no pending pull requests, etc.

I understand if you are angry or disappointed by this, but we really need to "reset" everything in order to reignite the development of this bundle.
