v1.3.8 (2026-10-02) #

Updated

• The Layouts stylesheet's page-wide rules no longer reset the whole admin page on node views (d21be9c; one rule in design/admin/stylesheets/netgen/layouts-admin.css)

v1.3.7 (2026-10-01) #

Updated

• The layouts admin pages run on the admin's jQuery 4 from ezjscore and carry Exponential names: layouts-ibexa.js and layouts-ibexa.css are now layouts-exponential.js and layouts-exponential.css, nglayouts-ui.css is explayouts-ui.css, and the pages no longer load layouts-admin.js (e3d2723). If your own template overrides load the old file names, change them
• The Components page lists the usages of the renamed exp_component_<type> blocks; an installation shows them once the updatecomponentblockidentifiers.php script of explayouts has renamed its stored blocks (667e862)
• The Roboto fonts the layouts stylesheet points to ship in design/admin/stylesheets/media, so the layouts pages show their fonts instead of 404 errors (3e56537)
• The rule list's layout actions use a condition the template language supports; before, a parser error was logged on every view and the actions did not show for an editor (0c6083f)

v1.3.6 (2026-09-30) #

Updated

• Fixed: The admin Layouts pages load their stylesheets in the page head, so the sidebar is painted styled at once (379fe88)
• Fixed: The dark sidebar and hidden scrollbars of the Layouts pages no longer reach the admin's node views (107ccf2)

v1.3.2 (2026-09-27) #

Updated

Updated

• Fixed: Load more works in the layout preview (35bae6c)

v1.3.0 (2026-09-22) #

v1.2.3 (2026-09-20) #

Updated

• Fixed the New layout button and the sorting controls running off the edge of the layout list on a phone, caused by a header row that could not wrap around selects that could not shrink, so the whole header now stays inside the screen. (1a1bc79)

v1.2.2 (2026-09-19) #

Updated

• Fixed the component usage and shared layout listings showing nothing and no reference counts on MongoDB, caused by a JOIN and a GROUP BY the driver cannot translate, so both admin screens report what is actually there. (60de39e)

v1.2.1 (2026-09-17) #

Updated

• Set content_info viewmode to 'layout_preview' in layout preview. (a633075)
• Renamed the rule administration to layout mappings throughout the list and detail screens, and rebuilt the forms to offer content classes and siteaccesses as dropdowns instead of free text, add a per mapping cache clear, and scaffold a new mapping with a priority that actually resolves.
