Reusable Content Type Bug

The problem


We are currently having an issue with our reusable content type widgets. When using these widgets and selecting to only show a single item, you will notice an issue with the way the item displays. Even when selecting a specific display template, the widget does not change display views. For example, when choosing to display a single person using the people widget, the page will display the full profile regardless of the view template you have chosen. Also, if a single item of content is specifically selected while using the CTA, testimonial or enhanced card, it will change the title of the page. The following fix will resolve these issues. 

 

The Example


When choosing a single item, like this:

The Workaround
