Hi @martinkastler 

Editors/Authors should make it a practice that while making a complex or a large content change create a version of that page. This helps in having a backup of content page. Although yes having an indicator to notify user that multiple users are working on the same page would be useful. 

Thanks

What if we add a render condition to the Edit button, which is only enabled if the page is locked by the current user.

Until the lock is released, no one (except admins) would be allowed to edit.

Thanks for proposing this idea

This has been reported to the engineering under the internal reference SITES-14086. The product team will triage this request to verify feasibility based on the prioritization model. This post will be updated according to the Jira request status.

Any updates on this issue ?

@martinkastler, thank you for posting this idea.

This feature requires a very heavy lift with having a real-time central communication server that broadcasts such information among the authors. Right now, it's not our top priority, but we might potentially include it in the new Universal Visual Editor and later in other editors.
