TYPO3 Core

Can confirm, still a problem in 10.4.9.

I tested and reproduced it on latest master (11.0.0-dev) with the following procedure

1) Page view > select a page with a content element with an Header
2) click on the content element icon > show

result: a different tab opens and show the frontend page with the content element.

3) click on the content element icon > edit
4) change the Header, save and close
5) click on the content element icon > show

result: you switch to the previously opened tab, but the content is not changed

The same issue does not seem to occur with this procedure:
1) Page view > select a page with a content element with an Header
2) click on the content element icon > edit
3) Click on the View button on the top

result: a different tab opens and show the frontend page with the content element.

4) change the Header, save
5) Click again on the view button

result: you switch to the previously opened tab, and it refreshes itself so the content is changed

Please let us know if you use different steps or there are scenarios I am missing

No, that still does not refresh the page for me. As long as you click the "view" button on the content element page, it opens the window with an anchor and does not refresh. It does work on "Save & Close" (or rather, "Close" while acknowledging the popup to save changes), because then you're back on the backend layout and the view icon does not include an anchor.

I think some JavaScript would have to be triggered to get both the refresh and anchor feature.

Okay, so I've tried to add some JavaScript in the FormEngine.js on line 980:

window.open('', 'newTYPO3frontendWindow').location.reload();

That would do the trick, but unfortunately the browser doesn't like this if the backend domain does not match the frontend domain:

FormEngine.js?bust=redacted:980 Uncaught DOMException: Blocked a frame with origin "https://backend-domain.example.org" from accessing a cross-origin frame.

Edit: Obviously, this needs to be added in lines 996 and 1004 as well.

I have the same issue in Multisite project. The first click will work but when i get back to the backend tab and do some changes save and then i click view. the frontend will not refresh.
TYPO3 11.5.23

In the console i see this : Uncaught DOMException: Blocked a frame with origin "https://subdomain.***.info" from accessing a cross-origin frame.
