When my custom product type displays, I want a whole new layout/view. I have the content area being removed by nothing shows when I add it back. Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

<referenceContainer name="content" remove="true" />
<referenceContainer name="content">
    <block class="Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template" name="customproductform" template="CustomProductForm::customproductform.phtml"></block>
</referenceContainer>

Reset to default

it won't work in the way you are doing it.
Once you set remove="true" on a container (or block) that container (or block) will be ignored.
remove doesn't work like a reset button. once you set it, you can start over. It stays in there forever.
You will have to remove all blocks from the container otherwise. unfortunately I don't know yet how to do that.

  • It says here devdocs.magento.com/guides/v2.0/frontend-dev-guide/layouts/… To replace: To replace an element, remove it and add a new one. So, maybe I have to add a new <container name="content"> ?? I tried that though and it didn't work

    Have you tried to do <container name="content"> without removing it prior? In effect replacing it?
