Problem/Motivation

This issue is the first step in wider move #3318110: [meta] Reorganize Block items in the administration menu, which was discussed and agreed as part of #3316853: Drupal Usability Meeting 2022-10-28.

When the comment, node and media modules are enabled, the following admin links are easily accessible at /admin/structure:

  • Comment types (/admin/structure/comment)
  • Content types (/admin/structure/types)
  • Media types (/admin/structure/media)

However, for the new user, it is not immediately obvious that in order to add/edit a Block type you have to:

  • Click on Block layout (/admin/structure/block)
  • Click the Custom block library tab (/admin/structure/block/block-content)
  • Click the Block types link (/admin/structure/block/block-content/types)

Proposed resolution

Move the block_content_type UI to the top level of the Structure menu and align it with other core modules which provide bundles.

Remaining tasks

None.

User interface changes

Before patch:

Structure menu before the patch.

After patch:

Structure menu after the patch, showing the Custom block types menu link.

API changes

None

Data model changes

None
