Creating a ticketing system in Drupal 8. How to change a node's field value without going to the edit page? I'm creating a simple ticketing system in Drupal 8 to log my daily tasks. The content type contains title, body, and ticket status. The status field can be new, in progress, or completed. When I create a new ticket, the status is set as new by default. I also have commenting enabled on this content type. 

The issue I'm having now is the UX of this setup. I can comment on the ticket fine, but if I were to change the status of the ticket to in progress or completed, I'd have to goto the edit page of the node and make this change. How can I change the status value without going to the edit page? Is there a ajax field update feature? 

I wan't to be able to make my comment and also change the status of the ticket all at once vs making a comment, then click edit to change the status.
You could build an ajax form that would update the node's "Ticket Status" field, embed that in a custom block and place that block on the page for that node or embed it in the node.  Instead of in a block, you could also create a field formatter plugin that embeds the ajax form into the display for that field.
