    Free extension: Autosave Drafts for Activity Stream

    Hi, I’ve released a free extension for EspoCRM 9.3.x that adds autosave while writing in the Activity Stream.

    Why I created it

    I often lost long comments or updates when a tab closed, the page reloaded, or I navigated away by mistake. EspoCRM only saves drafts on page unload, so if the browser crashes or you close the tab before it finishes, the text is gone. I built this extension so that drafts are saved while you type, so you don’t lose your work. What it does
    • Saves your draft automatically every 1.5 seconds after you stop typing
    • Works on any entity that has the Stream panel (Accounts, Contacts, Leads, etc.)
    • Uses the existing EspoCRM draft mechanism (sessionStorage)
    • No database changes – purely client-side
    Requirements
    • EspoCRM 9.3.x or higher
    • PHP 8.0 or higher
    Download GitHub: https://github.com/dgiovannetti/autosave-draft-espocrm

    You can download the ZIP from the Releases page, then install it via Administration → Extensions → Upload.
