    Hi guys,

    Using Gutenberg editor and Layout control in the Genesis pane is not available. All I have is a spinning wheel of death (as I think it is known!).

    Q1: Possibly a plugin conflict but is this is a known issue with fix?

    Q2: Where in the MySql database can I find a record to adjust Layout manually?
    Want to set page to Full Width and cannot see anything in wp_posts or wp_postmeta that refers to Layout.

    Thanks for your help.

    Hi guys,

    If it helps I managed to find answer to my question above. I just needed to Insert a new record in the postmeta table as follows:

    INSERT INTO xx_postmeta (meta_id, post_id, meta_key, meta_value) VALUES ('475024', '99365', '_genesis_layout', 'full-width-content');

    I missed this first time around because the _genesis_layout record was not there for page. Found it on other pages that did have the full width layout! Oh well.
