Hi all,

There is a great pop-up configuration feature, called pop-up contents, where you can select what type of content you'll be displaying (see the "display" drop down menu), you can check that on AGOL blog.

Recently I found that this "Display" drop down dissapeared from Pop-Up contents tab (see the images below):
[ATTACH=CONFIG]17839[/ATTACH]

Can anyone explain, how to get back this feature (without hacking the page with firebug). Or ESRI developers decided to decline it?

If you have enabled editing on the layer, then you won't see the dropdown options. This is because editing attributes requires that the popup display as a simple list of attributes, with text input boxes next to the field name for editing. The user interface isn't sophisticated enough to manage both an editing popup and a non-editing popup. This is something we want to address in the future.

If you don't need the layer to be editable, you can disable editing and you'll see all the popup options. If you need to edit attributes, disable editing first, then configure the popup, then enable editing. This should work.

Thanks,

Mike
