hi,
I'm trying to change the Category Layout in a Menu Item to "Use Global" and when I click Save, the value shown in select always is "blog", not Use Global.

What can be happing?




Edit: The menu item is linked to a Flexicontent category

Hello

it is bug, fix is to edit:
components/com_flexicontent/views/category/tmpl/default.xml
Code:
<field name="clayout" type="categorylayout" default="blog" label="FLEXI_CHOOSE_SPECIFIC_CATEGORY_LAYOUT" description="FLEXI_CHOOSE_SPECIFIC_CATEGORY_LAYOUT_DESC" />

replace: default="blog"
with: default=""

Solved! Thank you.

Unfortunately does not solve my main issue.
I want to overwrite the Flexicontent template in the templates of Joomla, in beez3. As explained here:
www.flexicontent.org/documentation/faq/6...o-override-view.html
To prove that overrride work, I modified the file E: \ xampp \ htdocs \ joomla \ templates \ beez3 \ html \ com_flexicontent \ category \ default.php a
<?php die (STOP!);?> . But in the frontend still shows the template "blog" for the category.
What am I doing wrong?
PD: If I have to open another post for this, tell me.

Hello

default.php is an empty file that needs to exist for Joomla view compatibilty
- it is not used (never loaded)

Instead, the top level template file
- for category / all multi-items views except search) is
:
component/com_flexicontent/templates/blog/category.php
for a custom template, just replace "blog" with "my_tmpl" aka the name of your custom template

- for item view
component/com_flexicontent/templates/my_tmpl/item.php

- you should use Joomla template overide only for FLEXIcontent search view:
templates / beez3 / html / com_flexicontent / search / default.php
templates / beez3 / html / com_flexicontent / search / default_form.php
etc
