Editing Campground in French leads to "encountered unexpected error"

[lgontard]

FernchTranslation reports that when they try to edit campground page, they get the Unexpected error message. On the French side, the editorial team and department dropdown fields are missing. They are unable to update page to match Eng side affecting UX.

Suspect that if these fields were on the French side of this content type that French would be able to edit and publish.

I suspect this relates to:

• Some roles cannot create/edit some basic pages due to missing/invalid editorial team #718
• Department field missing on French side of Places #810

After deploying #835 to UAT, I am still unable to edit certain records, like the Camping Kusawa Lake referenced in the original report.

e.g. https://yukon.cms-uat.yukon.ca/fr/node/1676/edit

Error:

Message d'erreur

1 error has been found: [Authored by]

Note: this was tested using a user who had the Translator role, and no admin roles.

User mike is blocked that's why we can't reference that user. Can you try changing the user status temporarily to see it this fixes the issue?

https://yukon.ca/fr/plein-air-faune-et-flore/camping/site/camping-kusawa-lake I was able to edit and publish the page. I will ask FrenchTranslation to test. The dept and editorial team fields are not on the back end of the Fre side, so not having those fields there is not an issue.

I worry about statements like this, because I fear that someone will see that and thing "the fix is to show those fields in French". Not all fields need to be translated. If the French and English version of a thing have the same meaning or value for a thing/field, or if that thing is itself already translated, they likely do not need to be separately editable in the French translation.

As I recall on other content types those fields exist on the Fre side but were unselected. After ad admin updated those fields FrenchTranslation was able to edit and publish the page. Updated my comment to alleviate your worries;)

On UAT, testing using an account with the Editor and Translator roles, editing a campground in French now exposes the Yukon Editorial Team and Department fields.

For the test case originally referenced, Kusawa (https://yukon.cms-uat.yukon.ca/fr/node/1676/edit), it shows the Yukon Editorial Team as empty, which would otherwise have caused a crash.

Re-opening this, as in prod, those fields are still not visible.

Slightly moot, as @lgontard recently edited all records as an admin to set the Yukon Editorial Team and Department values.
