Theme Layouts
- Harmen Fuite (Unlicensed)
Every Post (content with Post Type enabled) theme file inherits from the theme Layout. This is a theme file where you put the <head> HTML tags, and all other stuff that needs to be shown on every web page of your site. The default theme layout is theme (theme file: theme.plate). You invoke the rest of the Plate content (scaffolding the Plate layout structure) by calling the {{ content_for_layout }} variable.
The layout theme files must always be placed in the layouts folder in the root of your theme. E.g. layouts/theme.plate.
You are required to include the following tag in the theme layout file’s <head>:{% include "content_for_head" %}
This adds all Plate dependencies, like all assets used when the site is in edit mode.
Heads up! The Theme Layout is something else entirely than the Plate Nested Layout structure!

By creating the theme file layouts/404.plate you can create a custom 404 Page.
