I am trying to: use Layouts

I visited this URL:

I expected to see: a layouts wizard tab in the edit page

Instead, I got:

you guys are partnered with jonathan perez, who uses types and views and teaches courses on it, he's been using it since the beta, on the genesis framework. i am using his theme and i can't get layouts to work. when i look in the forums i see your tech people constantly asking for a link to download the genesis framework, as if they've never heard of it before. it seems that there is a problem with integration w genesis, because i don't see any answers/solutions to the many questions being asked in the forums. my point is that it does work with genesis, but i can't get it to work. please help, thanks so much.

Please try follow our document to integrate your theme with Layout:
Layouts Theme Integration
https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/layouts-theme-integration/

If you need more assistance for it, you will need post a downloadable URL for the theme you are using, I need test and debug in my localhost.

Since I do not have a copy of Genesis framework, If you need more assistance for it, you will need post a downloadable URL for the theme you are using, I need test and debug in my localhost.

Since there are lots of theme file inside the zip file you provided.
I assume we are talking the theme file genesis.1.7.1.zip, I tested it in my localhost,
it is using custom function genesis() to display the single post (single.php)

the function genesis is defined in file framework.php:

function genesis() {
	get_header();

	do_action( 'genesis_before_content_sidebar_wrap' );
	?>
	<div id="content-sidebar-wrap">
		<?php do_action( 'genesis_before_content' ); ?>
		<div id="content" class="hfeed">
			<?php
				do_action( 'genesis_before_loop' );
				do_action( 'genesis_loop' );
				do_action( 'genesis_after_loop' );
			?>
		</div><!-- end #content -->
		<?php do_action( 'genesis_after_content' ); ?>
	</div><!-- end #content-sidebar-wrap -->
	<?php
	do_action( 'genesis_after_content_sidebar_wrap' );

	get_footer();
}

In above codes, this line:
do_action( 'genesis_loop' );
is for display the post content, you can replace it with layout function the_ddlayout(),

For example, modify your theme file single.php as below:

<?php
/**
 * WARNING: This file is part of the core Genesis framework. DO NOT edit
 * this file under any circumstances. Please do all modifications
 * in the form of a child theme.
 *
 * This file handles posts, but only exists for the sake of
 * child theme forward compatibility.
 *
 * @package Genesis
 */
	get_header();

	do_action( 'genesis_before_content_sidebar_wrap' );
	?>
	<div id="content-sidebar-wrap">
		<?php do_action( 'genesis_before_content' ); ?>
		<div id="content" class="hfeed">
			<?php
				do_action( 'genesis_before_loop' );
				the_ddlayout();
				do_action( 'genesis_after_loop' );
			?>
		</div><!-- end #content -->
		<?php do_action( 'genesis_after_content' ); ?>
	</div><!-- end #content-sidebar-wrap -->
	<?php
	do_action( 'genesis_after_content_sidebar_wrap' );

	get_footer();

and test again. also you can remove/add other parts of the codes as you needed.
