    SOLVED Base Outline cannot have a layout.

    Posted 8 years 10 months ago
    • When I go to the 'Base Outline' on the Hydrogen template I have on a website, I get the message "Base Outline cannot have a layout.".

      The only change I made was in the 'Hydrogen - Default' - 'templates/g5_hydrogen/custom/config/12/layout.yaml' file is shown below.

        /navigation/:
          -
            - 'position-position-3697 15'
            - 'menu-9379 70'
            - 'position-position-4709 15'
        /tagline/:
          -
        /main/:
          -
            - position-breadcrumbs
          -
            - system-messages-8761
          -
            - system-content-6359


      If I go to the 'Hydrogen - Default' layout, it shows the new 'tagline' section just fine. If I install the hydrogen template again, the 'Base Outline' pages shows as it originally did.

      One more problem, if I add the 'tagline' styling to the 'styles.yaml' file, it doesn't appear under the 'Sections'. Here is the inserted code with no 'tabs':
      navigation:
        background: '#f1f1f1'
        text-color: '#ffffff'
        overlay: 'rgba(48, 140, 196, 0)'
      tagline:
        background: '#f1f1f1'
        text-color: '#ffffff'
        overlay: 'rgba(48, 140, 196, 0)'
      showcase:
        background: 'rgba(48, 140, 196, 0)'
        image: ''
        text-color: '#ffffff'

      Anyone know what is going on with the 'Base Outline' and how I can add a default styling for my 'tagline' section?

    • The SYSTEM Base Outline works to set the global style and settings defaults for your theme, and outlines that you assign to normal pages such as the home page, or to use as a default for your content pages.

      Since it has no structure associated to it there is no Layout Tab shown.

    • Dan,

      Thanks for the reply. Actually, I understood this point.

      My concern / issue was that when I made a change to the YAML file, it did not display the 'styles' on the 'Base Outline' but instead gave me that message. Refreshing the page did not clear it up. The only way I could restore the 'styles' on the 'Base Outline' was to re-install the Hydrogen template. That was weird!

      So I went to the 'Layouts' on the 'Default' template, changed to the 'Base Outline' and got the message. But when I clicked the 'Styles' link, it displayed the styles. :)

      I must have never changed to the Base Outline while I was in the 'Layout' mode before. You learn something every day. LOL
