It says that it’s read only. Why? I click on “click to remix”.

That’s an odd error message.

Did you create that layout yourself?

This is a known issue. You should be at least a **PRO** member to be able to edit.

The only other option is to go to the actual project, do the modification and save it again. You will need to get rid of the old saved layout.

Thanks. I would give your reply a heart, but the system doesn’t let me right now because I am a new member. ❤

If my answer relates to your situation, you may mark it as **solution**. This will help others to understand the issue better.

I don’t consider that a solution since the issue still prevails. Having to pay for an issue to get rid of a bug appears strange to me. But I guess it makes sense to mark it as a “solution” anyway. Thanks.

It’s not supposed to be that way. I’ll file a bug report.
