Enable comments when submitting changes

An administrator can now turn ON or OFF an optional feature to prompt a user to add a comment when using the Save and Submit option in Oxygen.

By default, the SaveSubmitComments feature is OFF (false).

When a user edits a component in the Oxygen editor and selects Save and Submit:

  • If the SaveSubmitComments feature is ON (true), the user is prompted to enter a comment.

    The comment is optional and can be left blank.
