I have a few views that have custom field templates. These templates names had the Machine Name in the string in D7. This isn't appearing in Backdrop. Am I missing something? or is this just the way it is?

For example this is my tpl in D7: views-view-field--front-page-feature--new-front-hero--title.tpl.php, with new-front-hero being the machine name of the view. This isn't showing in the Theme: Information in backdrop.

Can you post an image of the view and what's showing on the Theme: Information UI?

Also, typically, this pattern "views-view-field--front-page-feature--new-front-hero--title.tpl.php," is broken as follows:

  • views-view-field: common to all field templates
  • front-page-feature: this is usually the machine name of the view
  • new-front-hero: this is typically the machine name of the display (not the view), configurable under "Machine name" on the right column, first option under "Other"
  • title: this is the Views field

So, if you want "new-front-here" to show in the template you have to be sure you name the display as "new_front_hero" under "Machine name", first option under "Other"
