I'm trying to restore the Content Type pop-up menu selector that is part of the default Edit Form for a custom list. In SPD 2013 you can create a new form for a list from the Forms section. In the next dialoguer you can select which content type you want to use. SPD creates a new page with all the relevant columns for that content type. It doesn't however create a content type pop-up that allows you to switch to other content types.

Does anybody know how to achieve this? I thought it might be creating a custom page layout but that is missing even more content.

Thanks in advance!

You can only select Content Types which are assigned to the List you want to create the NewForm for.

What exactly do you want to have? A Form which fills a List with Products, when the Products Content Type is selected?

  • Thanks for your reply. I'm trying to reduce the amount of fields per form. Say I have 10 columns 5 assigned to content type a five to b. Using the default edit form there's a content type pop-up that lets me switch between "a" and "b". If I create a new form [so I can add some javascript, change the layout, add some images, etc.] and choose content type "a" as per above images, the content type pop-up is no longer there.
