    Hi and thank you for your beautiful theme, Enfold.

    I’ve been trying to get used to this theme and taking if for a test drive with minimal content but am running into a glitch.

    I built a custom layout for my client’s home page but “Custom” is not an option under Page Attributes “Template”. “Default Template, Archives, Blank” are the only 3 templates listed. And if “Custom” were listed, I would expect to see the layout name that I created in Layout Builder ( “home page layout”) listed under “Layout”.

    So I created a brand new page, and rebuilt a new layout but a Custom option nor my newly rebuilt “home page layout 2” still did not appear. This means that each page that I create using the Advanced Layout Builder, will not give me the choice of specifying a custom layout.

    I thought that this would have something to do with the fact that my portfolio path kept including one of your dummy portfolio names because your dummy Portfolios were also set on “Default Template”. But each time I deleted the dummy portfolio that was included in the path, another one appeared. I got around this by deleting all of the dummy portfolios. I would like to update the theme but I would like to understand the problem first.

    Can you please let me know what I am missing here? I’ve tried to figure this out on my own and searched for a video that would explain this but couldn’t find one. Your Advanced Layout Video did not address this.

    Thank you.

    BTW, the Template is set on “Default Template” (Archives and Blank were also not correct but I had to choose one).

    Hi freeethinka,

    I’m not really clear on what you mean. Anything you make in a Advanced Layout Editor is only accessible from the Advanced Layout Editor. So if you save a template then it would be available from the same menu where the template was saved (the top right of the advanced layout editor interface).

    The page templates available from the Page Attributes meta box are php files within the theme files.

    Try watching the short intro video on the Advanced Layout Editor here for a general idea on how it functions: https://vimeo.com/channels/aviathemes/64927358

    Regards,

    Devin
