Container themes selector in toolbar

celyd2 · October 23, 2024, 12:31pm

When you edit a container on a page you get a classic block toolbar with theme, font, background, border, CSS, …

Do you know if it’s possible to use the themes drowdown list to assign container variants ?

EDIT :
I found the package of the excellent JohnTheFish (Container Magic) that bring much more but I was trying to find if there are some container customisations possible by default with Concrete CMS.

EDIT 2 :
This conversation from 2021 is similar too : Changing Container values using variables

### Description At present, if I have 2 containers with similar area names (…for example, a Right Sidebar container and Left Sidebar container) and I want to swap one for the other, I need to add an empty Left Sidebar container to the page next to my existing Right Sidebar container, then drag all the blocks from the areas of the Right Sidebar container to the equivalent areas in the Left Sidebar container, then remove the Left Sidebar container. Compare this to changing a page template in the design panel. We change the template and any blocks in similarly named areas are retained in the new template. I can swap a Right Sidebar page template for a Left Sidebar page template without losing anything. Then if I don't like it I can swap it back again. We currently can't do that with containers. Changing a container should be as easy as changing a page template.
