Hi,

is there a possibility to controll the available presets in the pages fieldtype?  
For example the homepage, and imprint have Layouts which i dont want to be in the presetlist for my customer, if he wants to create a new page.

greetings

You can control the available template to be used for each section separately in the pages section

> **[Pages section](https://getkirby.com/docs/reference/panel/sections/pages#filtering-pages__templates)**
>
> List and edit subpages

In addition to setting the templates option, you can use the `create` option. E.g. if you set

```auto
sections:
  notes:
    type: pages
    templates:
      - a
      - b
      - c
    create: a

```

Then pages with templates a, b and c will be listed in the section, but users will only be able to create new pages with template a in this example.

I now noticed, that it doesnt matter which of those 2 Layouts i select, always my default.yml with the Title “Standard Seitenlayout” will be taken. I have a blog-item.yml with “Standard Beitragslayout” but if i add this string into the create field, it wont refer to this yml. Do i have to refer in an other way? Currently i am using the “title:” value in the yml.

Could you please post your section?

Or have a look at the `site.yml` in the Starterkit. The last section has an example.

Do these blueprints actually exist? With which content file filename are the pages created?

Hi,

i already watched the site.yml from the Starterkit, but this didnt helped first.  
I realised, that i just have to refer to the filename. So if i want to include default.yml and blog-item.yml i have to do it like that:

```auto
        create:
          default
          blog-item

```

I tried first to define the text which is setted like that: “defaul: Standard Seitenlayout”, but Kirby gets the text automatically by the title Propertie.

Thanks for your help
