# Orchard Core Admin Lists

Every Orchard Core 4.0 admin page that lists items (content items, users, features, queries, workflows, layers, ...) renders them through the shared `AdminList` shape from `OrchardCore.Admin`. The shape renders the search bar, page actions, toolbar (item count, select-all, bulk actions), rows, empty message, pager, and page size selector in the layout the site (or the user) picks. Never hand-write a `<ul class="list-group">`, `<table>`, toolbar, or pager for an admin listing.

## Layouts

| Enum | Values | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `AdminListLayout` | `List` (default), `Grid` | `List` renders each item's `SummaryAdmin` shape as a whole row. `Grid` renders the item's `SummaryAdminGrid` shape, one cell per declared `AdminListColumn`, on a CSS grid whose header always lines up; below 48rem of list width (container query) it stacks like a `List` row instead of scrolling. |
| `AdminListActionsLayout` | `Buttons` (default), `Menu` | `Buttons` renders the `Actions` zone as buttons plus an "Actions" dropdown for `ActionsMenu`. `Menu` renders everything in one ellipsis dropdown. |

Exactly these values exist; templates can restyle them but cannot register more layouts.
