I am trying to: Create a content template for a CPT with Twenty seventeen theme
I visited this URL: https://toolset.com/2016/05/toolset-2-1-preview-visual-composer-integration-content-templates/ and https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/benefits-of-templates-for-custom-types-vc/
I expected to see: a clear link between my CPT and the content template
Instead, I got: confused meta box information (see attached picture)
Using VC 5.1.1 and latest versions of Types and views with Twenty Seventeen child theme.
Although I have no layout assigned to the CPT I am working on, when editing a post belonging to this CPT, the Content template meta box starts by being correct about the assigned content template but, once the post is updated, displays the following message: 'Since this page uses a layout, styling with a Content Template is disabled.'
Very confusing indeed.
By the way, the demo video shown in the first link above explains that, in order to use VC for CPT templating, one has to start from the Toolset dashbord and click on 'Create template' button. Alas, doing this opens the layout editor where no VC button is available. (I understand VC is only available for Content template and Views editing). I dare say, even more confusing.
Thanks for your help.
