This article introduces six new ECA Guide library recipes that improve the Drupal content editing experience through small, focused changes. They can draft metadata on first save, add access-aware edit links to teasers, prevent invalid dependent select values, offer field-level actions, fill several form fields without saving, and show contextual guidance beside a form. The point is not to apply all six recipes unchanged. They are well-architected starting points for a real editorial irritation. For editors, that means less repeated work and fewer avoidable mistakes. For organisations, it means more consistent content and a practical route to improving the CMS without turning every detail into a custom development project. The article also gives a simple choice: Field Widget Actions for one field, Form API Ajax for several form fields, and HTMX endpoints for nearby content. Production concerns still matter, especially permissions, validation, managed data, and AI review.
