I think a css class name cannot contain spaces. It should be connected with dash, underscore etc.

Thanks, I have tried that, but didn't work. any other ides

Its the Edit Layout Form that won't save the form data if there is any entry in the class field. Works fine if the class field is empty.

Any ideas?

Thanks

My Layout form (in 5.6.2.1) does not have a 'Classes' box. See attached.

What version is your site?

Can you post your output from Dashboard->System and Settings->Environment

I'm wondering if a past developer has attempted to modify things.

I was beginning to come to the same conclusion given no discussion in the forum. Thanks for your help.

As I suspected, there are 'overrides' for

"[root]/elements/block_area_layout.php"

and

"[root]/models/layouts.php"

I would rename both of these files to .bak files and see if that fixes things

Thanks Michael appreciate your help.

When I renamed those files it broke more. The whole editor wouldn't work.

In the short term I think I'll have to go back to the previous developer to reinstate whatever mod they have done.

Other comments on the forum have suggested I steer clear of using "layouts" and change the template. That may have to be the next step.

I'm getting out of my league now. Know enough to be dangerous, and that's, well, dangerous.

So, I'm in the market for a knowledgeable developer to head me back towards a non-modified c5 site, and change the template as suggested above.

Would you be interested in that work? if so, how much?
If not, can you suggest someone?

Here's our sitehttp://www.bodyscience.com.au

c5 wraps around an xcart shopping cart.

Thanks again.
