I start for about 25 years with an TI and learned Basic. Next was an Commodere 64, Amiga. On Amiga I learned Assembler and wrote some Games. Many years later again, I learned myself (without book ...) php,html and javascript. Then I wrote some small

I wrote this article, 'cause when I started with CMS, I didn't found were to change the layout.
After a long of searching, reading and asking, I found it in the frontend.
But ... there is a way to change it in the AdminCP.

This change will add two more options inside the section-menue. See images (before/after).

OK, let's start.
Open the file packages/vbcms/contentmanager.php
at the line 3416 you will found this code:

Code:

				<td class=\"thead\">" . $vbphrase['viewcount'] . "</td>".
/*				<td class=\"thead\">" . $vbphrase['layout'] . "</td>
				<td class=\"thead\">" . $vbphrase['style'] . "</td> */
			" </tr>";

change it into:

Code:

				<td class=\"thead\">" . $vbphrase['viewcount'] . "</td>
				<td class=\"thead\">" . $vbphrase['layout'] . "</td>
				<td class=\"thead\">" . $vbphrase['style'] . "</td> 
			 </tr>";

a few line later, at 3485 you will found the following code:

Code:

				$result .= "  <td class=\"$bgclass\" style=\"font-size:80%;\">" . $section['viewcount'] . "</td>\n";
/*				$result .= "  <td class=\"$bgclass\" style=\"font-size:80%;\"><select id=\"layout_" . $section['nodeid']. "\" name=\"layout_" . $section['nodeid']. "\"
				onchange=\"setFormValue('do','saveonelayout');
				setFormValue('nodeid', " . $section['nodeid']. ");
				document.getElementById('cms_data').submit();\">" . self::getLayoutSelect($section['layoutid'],
					$section['nodeid']) . "</select></td>\n";
				$result .= "  <td class=\"$bgclass\" style=\"font-size:80%;\"><select id=\"style_" . $section['nodeid']. "\" name=\"style_" . $section['nodeid']. "\"
					onchange=\"setFormValue('do','saveonestyle');
					setFormValue('nodeid'," . $section['nodeid']. ");
					document.getElementById('cms_data').submit();\">" . self::getStyleSelect($section['styleid'],
					$section['nodeid']) . "</select></td>\n"; */
				$result .= "</tr>\n";

change those lines into:

Code:

				$result .= "  <td class=\"$bgclass\" style=\"font-size:80%;\">" . $section['viewcount'] . "</td>\n";
				$result .= "  <td class=\"$bgclass\" style=\"font-size:80%;\"><select id=\"layout_" . $section['nodeid']. "\" name=\"layout_" . $section['nodeid']. "\"
				onchange=\"setFormValue('do','saveonelayout');
				setFormValue('nodeid', " . $section['nodeid']. ");
				document.getElementById('cms_data').submit();\">" . self::getLayoutSelect($section['layoutid'],
					$section['nodeid']) . "</select></td>\n";
				$result .= "  <td class=\"$bgclass\" style=\"font-size:80%;\"><select id=\"style_" . $section['nodeid']. "\" name=\"style_" . $section['nodeid']. "\"
					onchange=\"setFormValue('do','saveonestyle');
					setFormValue('nodeid'," . $section['nodeid']. ");
					document.getElementById('cms_data').submit();\">" . self::getStyleSelect($section['styleid'],
					$section['nodeid']) . "</select></td>\n"; 
				$result .= "</tr>\n";

All those changes were done in the RC4 (I don't know if it's disabled in the 4.0.0PL1, I can't get the suite at the moment).

Thank you. I don't know why they don't have this in the Section Manager by default.
