Definition for XLayouts

Post by herb200mph » Thu Jan 27, 2022 1:15 pm

In the Articles section for creating a Menu Link Item type, there are 4 new items called "xlayouts..."

The description for each type of layout is identical, word-for-word.

Is there any help or documentation available to define, specific, tutor on these new layout options for Menu Link Items?

Are these part of the new Joomla! v. 4.0.6, or are they part of the Sample Data after installation?

This is NOT coming from either core joomla or the joomla sample data

Thanks Brian. Will have to look further to see if any third-party stuff is adding that. It was surprising to open "Articles" for the Menu Link Item and see four XLayout option choices.

Will investigate this and post my findings back here.

Again, thanks Brian.

Found it. Those layouts come WITH Joomlart's Purity III Template running on the T3 or T4 Framework.

The features are rather handy to configure various types of layouts.

In any case, that is where those custom layouts are coming from.

Ran into this myself.
In recollection, believe that these came from a "T3" or "T4" Framework when a third-party Template was installed.
We uninstalled the Template and the "XLayout" options disappeared.
