[Resolved] The full-width option from DIVI is not applied to posts that use a given Content Template, when created with CRED

I configured the content template for my custom post type to always apply the fullwidth layout in DIVI (picture 01). When I create a post from the dashboard, it correctly utilises the fullwidth layout. When creating a new post from the front-end with the form I created with CRED, a sidebar appears.

Example:

This was created from the dashboard: hidden link
This was created via the front-end form: hidden link

Did I miss anything?

I confirm this issue.

A temporary solution can be to apply a Custom CRED API action and update the "_et_pb_page_layout" field of the newly created post with the correct value on submit (et_full_width_page).

This is elaborated here:
https://toolset.com/documentation/programmer-reference/cred-api/#cred_save_data

An example code can be:

add_action('cred_save_data', 'my_save_data_action',10,2);
function my_save_data_action($post_id, $form_data)
{
    // if a specific form
    if ($form_data['id']==12)
    {
       
          // add it to saved post meta
          update_post_meta($post_id, '_et_pb_page_layout', 'et_full_width_page');
        
    }
}

This will update the Field on submit of the CRED form and ensure that the right Layout is applied.

I will escalate this problem and report back to you once we have a proper solution.
