Before testing, i wonder if i should remove the existed "clear" button from the article.php form field, as this one is not used, and not needed because when creating a menu item type single article, this input could not be empty (so clear button makes no sense, and in fact the code for this button is not needed and not used...)

Don't know which button you're talking.

it's a pitty #10070 is not merged yet. Would be perfect to have a full size modal for this "Edit".

Test in Menus > Menu Item type "single article" > Edit article to open the modal to edit article
Ok

Test in Articles > Article Edition > Associations > Select an associated article, save and then try to edit this article associated with Edit button (should open the modal).

Js error when creating/editing article.

Used latest staging

The aim of this PR is great.

If you are in the mood after this changes, it would be great to have a "New" article button in the single article menu item :)

Don't know which button you're talking.

Don't worry, just edited the PR description... A stupid comment, as "clear" button is needed in Article associated edition, and so, all is good about this!

I have update the PR, due to a few possible issue with Association Article.
Did many tests, and seems working good.

If you are in the mood after this changes, it would be great to have a "New" article button in the single article menu item :)

Yes, exactly what i thought when working to fix modal item edit in menu edition: a new button.
The first step, with this PR, and with a few others if this one is ok, is to fix what exists first (but the possibility to directly create an article from the menu and/or when adding an associated article could be nice... not yet tested if could work well).

So i will say that now this PR is ready for testing !

I have tested this item successfully on 99115df

Tested successfully, works as described. Nice feature.

One remark: if you accidentally click outside of the modal window, while editing an article, the modal closes directly and all your changes are gone.
Users have to be aware of that.

I make the same comment as @BurtNL and also. It should exist a "Save" button.

oh and by the way, when "Save & Close" a meesage saying that it was been saved would be used full to.

Thank you for testing @andrepereiradasilva and @BurtNL !
The aim of this PR is mainly to fix the edit modal not openning in a modal, and fix and simplify existing code.
Of course, your comments are welcome! I agree with you that a few improvements could be done for this feature ;-)

It should exist a "Save" button

I did this one as it is for module edition (in menu edit, go to "Module Assignment" tab, and click on one module name : this one opens in a modal, and did the same here with article).
So future improvements will be of course possible ;-)

This PR has received new commits.

@andrepereiradasilva and @BurtNL Sorry, tests are reset ;-)

I have added 2 options ot BS modal, to disable close by accident. Fix this :

test just the modal part and now it doesn't close unless we save & close or close

I have tested this item successfully on 3f1cea6

Tested successfully, modal can now only be closed via the buttons. Great!
