Otter compatibility with custom layouts

[JohnPixle]

Hey all, I am creating this as a master issue to keep track of all things that will need to be addressed for Custom layouts compatibility. Will be updating this one accordingly.

• Dynamic image does not work as background overlay in Otter Sections when used in Custom Layouts #1269
• Query loops with Otter Dynamic Values and Links #1272
• Social Share icons point to the Custom Layout instead of the actual post #1270
• Post Content won't work #1341
• Popup block styles not loading when used in a Neve Custom Layout context  #1436

This will be helpful. Let us know all you can find, I'll start looking into them once we're out with the current release.

Hey @JohnPixle @mghenciu Let us know if there are any more issues that you found apart from the ones listed, with both Dynamic Conditions and in general with Custom Layout/FSE + Otter.

For this stage @HardeepAsrani , I think first we need to have the main requirements checked, meaning that Otter works properly in a Custom Layout context - and latter go into a testing phase with different Custom Layout conditions, etc.

For example, what I did first is to copy a bunch of Otter Patterns and add them into a Custom Layout. As seen in the video below, those look have some issues with the Container box, so that's one thing we need to fix first:
