## Summary
- Both \`IS_RECORD_PAGE_LAYOUT_EDITING_ENABLED\` and
\`IS_RECORD_PAGE_LAYOUT_GLOBAL_EDITION_ENABLED\` are force-enabled on
every existing workspace by the 1.23.0 upgrade command
\`BackfillRecordPageLayoutsCommand\` and seeded enabled for new
workspaces via \`DEFAULT_FEATURE_FLAGS\` +
\`seed-feature-flags.util.ts\`. They are no longer load-bearing.
- Unwrap all \`if (flag) { … }\` conditionals to their enabled branch on
both server and front.
- Delete legacy fallback files that only the disabled branch reached:
\`PageLayoutRelationWidgetsSyncEffect\`,
\`usePageLayoutWithRelationWidgets\`,
\`reInjectDynamicRelationWidgetsFromDraft\`,
\`injectRelationWidgetsIntoLayout\`, \`isDynamicRelationWidget\` (and
their tests).
- Strip the two \`enableFeatureFlags\` calls from the 1.23 upgrade
command — the page-layout backfill data logic itself is kept intact
since old workspaces upgrading from < 1.23 still need it.
- No DB cleanup migration: stale \`featureFlag\` rows are left in place,
matching the precedent set by #20531 and #20460.
Net diff: 37 files, +106 / -1727.
## Test plan
- [x] \`npx nx typecheck twenty-shared twenty-server twenty-front\` —
all pass
- [x] \`npx nx lint:diff-with-main twenty-server twenty-front\` — all
pass
- [x] \`cd packages/twenty-front && npx jest page-layout\` — 1240 tests,
all pass
- [x] \`cd packages/twenty-server && npx jest
workspace-entity-manager.spec\` — pass
- [ ] Manual smoke: open a record page, verify tabs render and \"Edit
Layout\" command-menu action is available
- [ ] Manual smoke: Settings → Data model → object → Layout tab is
visible (and hidden for remote / Dashboard objects)
- [ ] Manual smoke: edit a tab title, save, reload — confirm persistence
Add support for standalone pages: a new `PageLayout` type
(`STANDALONE_PAGE`) that can be rendered independently at
`/page/:pageLayoutId`, not tied to any record or object context.
- New `STANDALONE_PAGE` page layout type
- New `PAGE_LAYOUT` navigation menu item type: adds a `pageLayoutId`
foreign key to `NavigationMenuItemEntity`, allowing sidebar items to
link directly to standalone pages
- New `GLOBAL_OBJECT_CONTEXT` command menu availability type: separates
object-context-dependent commands (Create Record, Import, Export, See
Deleted, Create View, Hide Deleted) from truly global ones, so
standalone pages only show relevant commands
- Frontend routing & rendering: adds a `/page/:pageLayoutId` route with
its own page component, header, and command menu
- Widget rendering refactor
- Instance commands: two fast 1.22 migrations: `pageLayoutId` column +
`STANDALONE_PAGE` enum, and `GLOBAL_OBJECT_CONTEXT` availability type
enum
- Workspace command: backfills existing command menu items from `GLOBAL`
to `GLOBAL_OBJECT_CONTEXT` where appropriate
- Dev seeds: adds a sample "Star History" standalone page with an iframe
widget for local development
- Renamed FieldConfiguration's layout field to fieldDisplayMode as it
caused issues with the layout field of BarChartConfiguration
- Create relation Field widgets for standard objects

### What
Unifies record page layout editing and navigation menu editing into a
single global "layout customization" session. Dashboard editing stays
separate.
### How it works
**Two edit mode systems, one context-based read:**
- `isLayoutCustomizationModeEnabledState` -- global atom for record
pages + navigation
- `isDashboardInEditModeComponentState` -- dashboard-only, independent
per-component atom
- `PageLayoutEditModeProvider` -- context that dispatches to
`RecordPageLayoutEditModeProvider` (reads global atom) or
`DashboardPageLayoutEditModeProvider` (reads component atom), one
component per file
**Session registry + independent atoms:**
- `activeCustomizationPageLayoutIdsState` -- accumulates page layout IDs
as user navigates during customization (`string[]`)
- Save/cancel iterate the ID list and read each layout's draft/persisted
atoms independently
- Follows the same pattern as `settingsRoleIdsState` +
`settingsDraftRoleFamilyState`
**Unified UI:**
- `LayoutCustomizationBar` replaces the old `NavigationMenuEditModeBar`
- Enter once -- edit record layouts + navigation -- save/cancel
everything together
- `useSaveLayoutCustomization` orchestrates sequential save: navigation
draft -- page layouts -- field widget groups
- Error snackbar on partial save failure (with TODO for future atomic
server mutation)
**Draft protection during customization:**
- `PageLayoutRelationWidgetsSyncEffect` guarded -- only updates
persisted state from server, skips draft/currentLayouts while
customization is active
- `useExecuteTasksOnAnyLocationChange` skips draft reset when
customization mode is enabled
- Command execution blocked during layout customization
### Cleanup
- Deleted `NavigationMenuEditModeBar`,
`isNavigationMenuInEditModeState`,
`isPageLayoutInEditModeComponentState`,
`useIsGlobalLayoutCustomizationActive`
- `DraftPageLayout` type changed from `Omit` to `Pick` (explicit fields)
- Removed save/cancel from `DefaultRecordCommandMenuItemsConfig` (bar
handles it now)
- Extracted `useSaveFieldsWidgetGroups` from save orchestration
- Split `PageLayoutEditModeProvider` into 3 separate files (one
component per file, Twenty convention)
### Known issues
- **Stale deleted widget after save (pre-existing on `main`)**: Delete
widget -- save -- exit customization -- Apollo cache stale -- sync
effect overwrites Jotai from stale data -- widget reappears until
refresh. Separate PR needed, likely tied to the planned server-side
`saveLayoutCustomization` atomic endpoint.
### Open questions
- **Module location**: Layout customization hooks/states live in `/app`
-- should they move to their own `modules/layout-customization/`?
- **Atomic server mutation**: All save mutations are on metadata schema
(`createNavigationMenuItem`, `deleteNavigationMenuItem`,
`updateNavigationMenuItem`, `updatePageLayoutWithTabsAndWidgets`,
`upsertFieldsWidget`). A single `saveLayoutCustomization` endpoint could
make saves truly atomic.

1. **Creating a new dashboard crashes with "Tab not found"** and widgets
can't be added after the crash is prevented.
**Root cause:** `initializePageLayout` wrapped both the persisted and
draft state updates behind an `isDeeplyEqual` guard. After navigation,
`resetPageLayoutEditMode` resets the draft atom to its default but
leaves the persisted atom untouched. On re-initialization,
`isDeeplyEqual` returns true (persisted unchanged), so the draft is
never repopulated. But edit mode is still activated.
**Fix**: Move the draft store.set outside the isDeeplyEqual guard so
it's always set on initialization. Also add a defensive check in
`PageLayoutRendererContent` to prevent the crash when activeTabId
doesn't match available tabs.

We generate Field widgets for relations on-the-fly, when a record page
layout is first requested by the user. When the user changed their data
model and then returned to a record page layout, the Field widgets
weren't updated. **This PR ensures Field widgets are recomputed when
relations change.**
Future subjects:
- Now that we will fetch the configuration from the backend and start
storing updates, we will have to think about how we deal with these
generated relation Field widgets.

Until now, it wasn’t possible to navigate between page layouts.
Dashboards don’t contain links to other dashboards. With record page
layouts, however, a page layout can now contain a link to another page
layout. If the user opens a record in the side panel and then clicks a
link to another record, the current page layout is replaced with the
page layout for the clicked record.
In this scenario, the `PageLayoutRenderer` component is not remounted.
As a result, the `isInitialized` state was not reset to `false`, and the
corresponding initialization `useEffect` was not triggered again.
All page layout states are component states bound to
`PageLayoutComponentInstanceContext`. For example, after navigating to
another record, `pageLayoutPersistedComponentState` was actually
`undefined` because the context's `instanceId` had changed.
Replacing the `isInitialized` state with a component state fixes the bug
and is consistent with the existing pattern of using component states to
store everything related to page layouts.
