Hi all,
I solved my problem by adding my own template-layout in .local/share/plasma/layout-templates/. Thank you for your help. About the syntax of org.kde.plasma.desktop-layout.js if you can explain or give me some documents I'll very appreciate. I'm going to write a blog about this and hope to help further migrators who wants to customize Plasma 5. BTW, there are still some problems like plasmashell ignores XDG_MENU_PREFIX and some XDG environment variables. I'll start another topic for this.
