| 23 | When changing the Page Syntax in the "Information" Tab, the [[Realtime Collaboration feature is disconnected>>https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-23264]]. Thus, if other users were editing the Page at the same time, some [[merging conflicts>>xwiki:Documentation.UserGuide.Features.PageEditing.WebHome||anchor="HEditconflict"]] may occur and they'll need to be [[resolved manually>>xwiki:Documentation.UserGuide.Features.PageEditing.WebHome||anchor="HEditconflict"]]. | ||
| 24 | |||
| 25 | As a result, the [[Common Edit Actions>>xwiki:Documentation.UserGuide.Features.PageEditing.WebHome||anchor="HCommoneditactions"]] are shown instead of [[Realtime Edit Actions>>xwiki:Documentation.UserGuide.Features.PageEditing.RealtimeEditActions.WebHome]]. | ||
