Description

I don't know if this is might be a bug (tested with latest 4.5 and 4.6):

Usually, each content element owns a backend field called "layout". But when the content element is a plugin (type: list), this field is missing and cannot be edited.

A workaround for me to get the field "layout" editable is:

  1. expand the table "page content" in list module
  2. add "layout" in "set fields"
  3. edit all content elements at once (using the pencil next to "layout" in column header)

after this, the field "layout" is also visible / editable for the plugin ce's.

Kind reagards, Jan

Most extensions have a line in ext_tables.php which like:

$TCA['tt_content']['types']['list']['subtypes_excludelist'][$_EXTKEY.'_pi1']='layout,select_key';

This removes the layout (and select_key) field from the BE forms. The extension author decided to not use this field.
