[5.x]: Removed Entry Type Remains After Removal From Section
What happened?
Description
If a Section only has a single Entry Type, and therefore all entries in that section have that Entry Type applied by default, and you remove that Entry Type from the section and replace it with another, all of the entries in that section will still have the removed Entry Type applied to them, requiring the author to go in and manually change the Entry Type to the new default.
Steps to reproduce
- Create a Section and give it a single Entry Type
- Save some entries in that Section—they will have that one Entry Type applied by default
- Go back to the Section edit view and remove that one Entry Type, replace it with another. Hit save.
- Go back through the entries in that section and look at the Entry Type dropdown in the top right: it will still have the initial Entry Type selected, even though that Entry Type is no longer available to that Section.
Expected behavior
If a Section only has a single Entry Type, and it is replaced, all Entries in that Section should be resaved with the new Entry Type automatically when that change has been saved to the section.
Actual behavior
As described above: after a single Entry Type has been replaced with a new one, all Entries in the Section are not updated with the new Entry Type, and must be manually updated.
