Default Layout File is Not Exists
Torborg
I have installed the Helix framwork, helix template and SP builder and I have copied my main page and assigned it to a (not so visible) menu og assign that menu to the new template. The plan is to adjust the helix template to be like I want and then assign it to the rest of the pages. But i get the message "Default Layout file is not exists! Please goto to template manager and create a new layout first." I have read the other posts here. I tested to assign and reassign the menus on the old template and the new, but I can't get it to work.

Thanks for reaching out and for the access.
Please check now and do let me know if it is okay now or not.

Accepted AnswerThanks, now I don't get the "Default Layout File is Not Exists" message, and I get helix template so that I can edit. What did you do?
BUT the slider is gone from my frontpage! The template "Callisto - Home - Particles_biony" should be assigned for the front page only. Now it's not.

Accepted AnswerI tried to assign the front page myself, but the slider is still gone. I need the slider on my first page. I can possibly restore from tonights backup, but then we're back to start with "Default Layout File is Not Exists".
Isn't it possible to have two different templates assigned and still get helix to work on one of the menues?
ITs important to have my old site up and working, so that i can work on this new template in the backgground

Accepted AnswerNow the slider is there. That's how I want it my pages to look. But now I get the message "Default Layout File is Not Exists", and no pages are assigned to the helix template.

Accepted AnswerHi,
I have tried to do the steps once more. Here is the screencast of what I have done:

Didn't touch anything else. Later I have noticed that menu assignment has changed as you mentioned, so I have tried to re-assign as you did. But, seems the slider issue is happening again.
Where I can find the slider? Or can you try to restore your backup one more time to let me check this issue again. I will be more careful this time.

Accepted AnswerThanks for showing me the steps!!
Now the slider is there, but the Helix template gives "Default Layout File is Not Exists" Where you can find the slider: It is called swiper particle in gantry.
First go to the template "Callisto - Home - Particles_biony". Scroll down and choose swiper.

Accepted AnswerI can restore the pages to a backup from before we started, but it isn't everything back to where it was?
