Update on a Menu-item - CheckValidity fails

[Faber44]

Bug report

Form isn't submited on update with "page slug input" selected.

What I've already tried to fix it:

HTML validation fails because of the attribute: required on disabled inputs (aka internal link input & external link input).
Moved the required attribute only where it belongs in crud>fields>page_or_llink.blade.php :

BEFORE :

{{-- internal link input --}}
 <input
    type="text"
    class="form-control"
    placeholder="{{ trans('backpack::crud.internal_link_placeholder', ['url', url(config('backpack.base.route_prefix').'/page')]) }}"
    for="{{ $field['configurationNames']['link'] }}"
required
    @if(isset($entry))
        @if ($entry->{$field['configurationNames']['type']} !== 'internal_link' && $entry->{$field['configurationNames']['type']} !== 'page_link')
            disabled="disabled"
        @endif
  
        @if ($entry->{$field['configurationNames']['type']} === 'internal_link' && $entry->{$field['configurationNames']['link']})
            value="{{ $entry->{$field['configurationNames']['link']} }}"
        @endif
    @else
        disabled="disabled"
    @endif
   >

AFTER :

<input
    type="text"
    class="form-control"
    placeholder="{{ trans('backpack::crud.internal_link_placeholder', ['url', url(config('backpack.base.route_prefix').'/page')]) }}"
    for="{{ $field['configurationNames']['link'] }}"
    @if(isset($entry))
        @if ($entry->{$field['configurationNames']['type']} !== 'internal_link' && $entry->{$field['configurationNames']['type']} !== 'page_link')
            disabled="disabled"
        @endif

        @if ($entry->{$field['configurationNames']['type']} === 'internal_link' && $entry->{$field['configurationNames']['link']})
            value="{{ $entry->{$field['configurationNames']['link']} }}"
required
        @endif
    @else
        disabled="disabled"
    @endif
    >

Hello @pxpm we have a problem here.

When we added a "Page Link" type Menu item, we came back to just updating the link. there is a problem that prevented the update.

Please let me know if you need further information.

Cheers.

This continues to be an issue with the package, and is essentially narrowed down to the page_or_link field type based on our testing.

The typical resolution on our side for this on projects is to override the page_or_link.blade.php template by copying it to resources/views/vendor/backpack/crud/fields/page_or_link.blade.php and removing the required attribute from all instances of .form-control.

Thanks for the report, and sorry for the time it took to come back here and fix this. 🙏

Let us know if you are still experiencing issues 👍
