Viewing Layouts

The layout list is where you find and navigate to the layout you want to edit.

How to view layouts​

  1. In Ad Manager (main) mode, confirm the right domain is selected in the sidebar's domain selector.
  2. Go to Inventory → Layouts.

You'll see a list of every layout defined for the selected domain.

What the list shows​

The list is a compact three-column table:

ColumnWhat it shows
NameThe layout name (sortable)
actionsPer-row actions — view, edit, copy, archive
Last ModifiedWhen the layout was last changed (sortable, defaults to most-recent first)

Layout configuration (which ad slots are in it, page-path scope, targeting) is not summarized in the list. Click a row to open the detail page.

Finding a layout​

Filter​

Use the filter / search input above the list to narrow by name.

Sort​

Click Name or Last Modified to toggle sort direction.

State filter​

A state dropdown switches between active and archived layouts. Archived layouts are hidden by default.

Acting on a layout​

The actions column offers:

  • View / Edit — opens the detail page. The layout form is tabbed: Ad Slots · Scope · Targeting · History.
  • Copy — clone a layout as a starting point for a new one.
  • Archive — hide from the default list without deleting.

Changes on the detail page don't affect your site until you ship a release from Wrapper → Releases.

Debugging which layout matches a page​

Anima doesn't have a dedicated preview URL. To confirm which layout applies to a given URL:

  1. Visit the page with ?pbjs_debug=true appended to the URL.
  2. Open DevTools → Console and filter for AAM.
  3. Look for AAM Processing <N> ad slots on page. <N> equals the slot count on whichever layout matched; <N> === 0 means no layout matched.

See Wrapper Debugging for more.

Common questions​

I don't see all my layouts

Check:

  • Correct domain selected in the sidebar's domain selector
  • Filter / search isn't narrowing the list
  • State filter isn't set to Archived
  • Scroll or paginate for more results
How do I compare layout performance?

Break down by layout in Dashboard → Monetization to compare revenue, fill rate, and CPM across layouts.
