Interface Layout Templates - New experience

Avatar

Level 2

Dear all,

 

We had a template designed and applied for all our marketing colleagues.

Now, this has been arbitrarily replaced by the new interface, which has caused a real mess.

 

Without going back to the old interface, is there a way to develop and deploy a customized template based on the new interface?

 

Thanks if you can help!

The New Home isn't setup so that Admins have control of it for users. It's all individualized for the users to setup. There were lots of talks in the Beta about this and I'm hoping it will be roadmapped into the solution at some point. I have it turned off for our instance but users can still opt in to use it if they choose.

What do you mean by "new interface"? Workfront's "old interface" was deprecated well over a year ago so surely you don't mean that.

Can you post a screenshot maybe? Are you referring to an old layout vs. a new layout?

My concern is about the "New experience" which isn't tied to the Layout Templates anymore.

New experience:

In Settings/Interface/Layout Template, you could build homepage layouts and apply them to some users.

It seems to be broken with the new "home experience".

Ah, you're talking about the New Home.

IMO, Not ready for use.

To turn it off, reference this thread, 3rd reply

Thanks Kellie.

Though offering personalization, the dev team has to think about all categories of users: Many our the Sponsors/reviewers just want things to be consistent and preset for them. They really don't want to take time setting and personlisazing things, they already have enough on their plate.

If workfront is not an easy-to-use platform, they will want to switch to the good old… Please help us promote Adobe Workfront by taking care of all our users.

@jlenoel - The feedback was given so now we just have to sit and wait to see if they make the change. I would suggest using the feedback button on the new home area to provide your feedback directly to the developers. The more people that say they want it gives us better odds at them implementing the change.
