Layouts plugin provides a drag-and-drop editor that is used from the WordPress administration. Using this editor, you can create layouts, assign them to specific content and design entire pages.
When you ask for help or report issues, make sure to tell us the design that you want to achieve and the layouts that you have created so far.

Problem: I would like to create a design where posts are listed in a View and editable on the same page.
Solution:
You can insert the "Add New" Form on the same page as a View of posts. You can add a link that says "Add New Post", and scroll to the Form when someone clicks that link. Showing and hiding the Add New Form will require custom CSS and JavaScript, but it can be done.
The Edit Form isn't easily implemented like this. You would have to place the Edit Post Form in the View loop, and that isn't the recommended way to add Edit Post Forms. You can try it, but some features of Forms, like AJAX submission and custom validation, may not be fully functional in a loop. Again, custom CSS and JavaScript would be required to show and hide individual Forms when links are clicked.
Have all posts to have the same format. Because of a lingering Layout Auto Draft that can't be deleted, new posts can have the Content Template Metabox while those created prior are prevented from using that same format as well as not displaying that Metabox.
Should I manually go into the database via phpMyAdmin, find and delete that layout? If so, please let me know where it's located. Although there is nothing tied to it that is clearly visible, might there be a record somewhere in the database that is preventing it from being sent to trash?
Solution:
Yes, you can remove that Auto Draft record from the database, but I suggest you backup your database first
The layouts data are stored in your database table wp_posts, layout ID is same as post ID.
Problem: I'm trying to use Layouts, WPBakery Page Builder, and the Newspaper theme together but I'm not able to get my page templates to appear as expected.
Solution: Toolset Layouts and WPBakery should not be used together, so it's best to deactivate the Layouts plugin. The Newspaper theme doesn't work out-of-the-box with Content Templates, but you can follow the steps in our Theme Support for Content Templates document to help fix that problem.
Add this function name in Toolset > Settings > Frontend Content > Theme support for Content Templates:
The client wanted a user to search for a dog breed, and whatever results show up, the showcase view will show the showcase dog that is relative to that search.
Solution:
You can create another view with same filters, see details here:
The issue here is that the user is getting the WSOD when they are editing their custom posts.
Solution:
Normally issues like these are caused by plugin conflicts and what I would recommend that you do is to temporarily disable all the non-toolset plugins and try again.
