Cheers

It should be working for anything that will override on node_edit -- though note that complex node types that are offered by modules may have their own overrides which will take precedence over Panels.

in my case only the edit form is overriding - not the add from...

In my situation, what I want to do is have a node/add variant and a separate node/edit variant. Is this possible? I can't seem to figure out how to do this if it is.

Would I have to create a node/add/% custom panel page in order to do this (in addition to the system node/%/edit panel page that panels provides by default)? Or would this method cause something to break with Panels' system node/%/edit panel page?

Title: node add override » node add override - not working with i18n?

http://drupal.org/node/558250

Same problem as Apfel007. BUT I tried on another install and received some error messages on the screen:

# Page manager module is unable to override node/add/blog because some other module already has overridden with i18ncontent_node_add. Node edit will be enabled but that edit path will not be overridden.
# Page manager module is unable to override node/add/poll because some other module already has overridden with i18ncontent_node_add. Node edit will be enabled but that edit path will not be overridden.
# Page manager module is unable to override node/add/faq because some other module already has overridden with i18ncontent_node_add. Node edit will be enabled but that edit path will not be overridden.

For every content type I get this message.

So I suspect that there is some trouble with i18n. I am not able to inspect this from a code aspect but I will take some time to track this down. I strongly suspect that Apfel007 as a german user has the same problem. So I change the title.

@Chris
This might be worth a separate issue.

I suppose my comment above (#3) was a little off-topic, because this topic deals with the node/add override not working at all, and my comment was about separating the overrides for node/add versus node/edit.

I've therefore started a new issue about this: #559514: Is it possible to have separate variants for node/add versus node/edit?

Better settings.

If another module is overriding the node/add then you have two choices:

1) Disable that module
2) convince the module maintainer to add code to allow Panels to take over the page
3) Do not try to take over node/add with Panels.
