Using FPP panes with Panels can sometimes lead to the Panels UI being very hard to navigate. On this site, the title field is almost never used. As a result, all panes have the title "No title" in the admin UI. An admin title field for FPP panes (like the one for fields in Views) would be a fantastic improvement.

Interestingly there is already an admin title for FPP. But it's only used if the FPP is a reusable item. Perhaps that admin title field could be made available even if the FPP isn't a reusable item?

A minor tweak to a message on the form.

Need to write a test confirm the basic fields that exist for an FPP.

This adds a bunch of tests around which fields are available during the creation & edit processes.

The patch also makes some minor tweaks:

  • The category of a reusable FPP is now editable again.
  • A new revision is automatically created when saving a nonreusable FPP, and the revision field is now editable again.
