I'm asking this because I try to use Check Out with Editable fields module (http://drupal.org/project/editablefields). When a user is editing the node with Edit form, Check out module works perfectly. However, when user edits a node via Editable fields display format, the node is not checked out.

Checkout currently triggers solely by looking at the URL of the requested page, and tries to extract a node id using a configurable regular expression (albeit without an administrative UI).

A quick solution to your problem would be making the regular expression matching more flexible to allow for catching editablefields or even completely arbitrary URLs.

BTW, which formatter do you use primarily, "Editable" or the AJAX-y "Click to Edit"?

Thank you for the explanation and suggestion - now I understand the cause and get the clue for a solution!

I use both Editable and Click to Edit.
