Alternates per content item

[HengzheLi]

My scenario is that I have create pages using Page contenttype. I want these pages to use different template to rendered. e.g. there is a page named userlogin and another named userregister. I want my custom login template to render userlogin page and my custom register template to render userregister page.

I remember in O1, there was an alternates that looks like Content-Item-[ContentId]. But this has to depend on the content item's id. And another approach is using Alias in placementinfo file to specify a alternates. But this seems not be implemented according this document https://orchardcore.readthedocs.io/en/latest/OrchardCore/OrchardCore.DisplayManagement/README/
in OC.

Is there another way to do that?

We could add an alternate with the Alias module, good idea.

I know this is an old issue, but is the goal here to add an alternate formatted like Content__[ContentType]__[Alias]? For example, a Page with an alias of my-page would have an alternate of Content__Page__my-page. Would any other alternates be appropriate? Should this take into account the content type stereotype as well?

The Content__[ContentType]__[Alias] looks like a good solution to me. I'll try to add it as part of the Harvest hackathon.
