Conditional Layout – Unable to assign layout to all Product Brands

Hi,
After updating to the latest WoodMart version, the behavior of conditional layouts for brand archives has changed.

Previous behavior (worked correctly):
When creating a conditional layout for archive pages, I could select “Product Brands” as the condition type and leave the specific brand field empty. This would apply the layout to ALL product brand archive pages.

Current behavior (broken):
The same configuration no longer works. Leaving the brand field empty no longer applies the layout to all brand archives. It seems the condition now requires selecting a specific brand, which defeats the purpose when you want a single layout for all brand pages.

I’ve tested this on a fresh WordPress installation with only WoodMart and WooCommerce active — no other plugins or custom code — and the issue persists, so this appears to be a theme-level change.

Is this an intentional change? If so, what is the new method to assign a layout to all brand archives without selecting each term individually?

I’d prefer to troubleshoot without sharing admin credentials.

Thanks in advance for your help

forgot to mention – im using the gutenberg page editor.

Update — this issue goes deeper. It seems the option to assign a layout to the Shop page was also removed? My homepage was built on this feature and is now not functioning.

I’ve confirmed this option doesn’t appear in a fresh install either, yet I don’t see anything about this change in the changelog.

Your urgent assistance would be appreciated.

Hello,

You can fix it by applying patch # 700498. To do this, go to Dashboard -> WoodMart -> Patcher, find the corresponding patch and click on the “Apply” button. Let us know if it works for you.
