When using save draft module and you register all the buttons (actions, publish, save draft, preview) then the publish/unpublish button will dissapear. Save as draft and the others will remain though.

Simple solution is not to register those elements but it seems like weird behaviour. Not sure if rel is doind something wrong here though.

The same thing happens with the Workbench/Workbench Moderation module.

The problem appears to be that the modules are trying to alter the expected FAPI elements which no longer exist due to the alterations by REL. Ideally I would think it would be better for them to be able to do their alters before REL messes with the FAPI elements.

Same problem. Turns out it wasn't only the Save Draft module doing it... something else is causing my publish button to disappear perhaps it's the this issue with Page_Title module?

So, here's a work around. If you are not using the save draft module and you've still got a missing publish checkbox, after you click "Manage Form Display", check all fields then carefully unselect "Publishing options, sticky front, and publish". Then, everything EXCEPT publishing options will be managed by Rel.

If you ARE using save draft module, then carefully unselect actions, save, delete, preview, and publish. You now have a rel form with working save as draft module. The only drawback is that you can't manage the edit buttons via the display manager. So, they will be at the bottom of the form...
