[Resolved] When designing a content template, dynamic sources is limited depending on

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
The customer asked how to select a specific post/page in the view with the field of the content template so that it is used for the preview.

Solution:
Guided that the "View with" selection field at the top of the content template editor, automatically shows the most recently modified pages/posts. If the content template is assigned to any specific post type, only posts from that post type are shown.

To quickly set any specific page/post in this "View with" field, you can follow these steps:

1. Go to the edit screen of the target preview page/post that you'd like to select in your content template.
2. On the edit screen, you'll see the option to select a content template in the right settings panel. You can select the target content template in this field and save the changes.
3. After that, when you'll visit the edit screen of the target content template, you'll see that the target preview page/post will be available in the "View with" field's dropdown. You can select it and save the template.
4. In the last step, you can go back to the edit screen of the target preview page/post and select the default option 'Template Dynamically Assigned by Toolset' in the content template selection field.

Tell us what you are trying to do? My website is very big with more than 500 pages. When I design a specific content template that might just be used in 100 of those pages. The "View With:"/View on frontend option at the top, limited the Dynamic options to create the content if the view with pages options is not those pages with the desired dynamic connect is want to use in template.
How can I change the "View With;" page options or is there a nother solution?

Is there any documentation that you are following? can not find something like this

Is there a similar example that we can see? none

What is the link to your site?

Hi,

Thank you for contacting us and I'd be happy to assist.

The "View with" selection field at the top of the content template editor, automatically shows the most recently modified pages/posts. If the content template is assigned to any specific post type, only posts from that post type are shown.

To quickly set any specific page/post in this "View with" field, you can follow these steps:

1. Go to the edit screen of the target preview page/post that you'd like to select in your content template.
2. On the edit screen, you'll see the option to select a content template in the right settings panel. You can select the target content template in this field and save the changes.
3. After that, when you'll visit the edit screen of the target content template, you'll see that the target preview page/post will be available in the "View with" field's dropdown. You can select it and save the template.
4. In the last step, you can go back to the edit screen of the target preview page/post and select the default option 'Template Dynamically Assigned by Toolset' in the content template selection field.

I hope this helps and please let me know if you need any further assistance around this.

regards,
Waqar
