Summary: The configuration UI for Placeholder replication is not consistent
Issue Type: cid:jira-generated-image-avatar-05e4c29b-9607-476f-a170-5108c217c29e Bug
Affects Versions: 2.3.9
Assignee: Unassigned
Attachments: Replicated_instance.png
Created: 28/Apr/26 16:03
Environment: Windows 11 Pro, Edge 147, using 2 instances of XWiki 17.10.7 on Jetty/ HSQL
Priority: cid:jira-generated-image-static-minor-16fbe044-9975-45b8-ba12-efde3166e4c6 Minor
Reporter: Ilie Andriuta
Description:

Steps to reproduce

  1. Configure Replication App on 2 instances (I've reproduced this on 2 local XWiki 17.10.7 Jetty/HSQL instances running on different browsers and different ports)
  2. On instance A, create a page (e.g. 'ReplicationPlaceholder')
  3. On this page, go to Administer Page > Other > Replication
  4. From 'Page and children' section, select 'All instances', Replication level: Placeholder
  5. Click 'Save' button
  6. On instance B, turn 'Hidden pages' setting to 'Yes' and refresh the browser
  7. Go to the replicated page and observe the Replication tab, 'Configuration' section

Expected results

On the instance B, on the replicated page's Replication tab > Configuration, the setting displayed is:

Receive a placeholder from this instance

since the direction configured on the owner instance is "Send only".

Actual results

The displayed setting is:

Send and receive a placeholder from this instance
