Compatibility with Adobe CQ5 is empty (components not shown)

Question

I added an element component to my template, trying to imitate the array of Geometrixx content. Everything is fine, but I cannot drag any components into the system because they are not there. What can I lose?

Additional Information:

• My component page is inherited from the bottom page. (primary type: cqComponent)
• My template page has this component as a resource type. (primary type: cqTemplate)
• The page (primary type: cqPage), in its jcr: content node, has a component as a resource type, a template as a cq: Template property, and has steam as a child (whose type is the base / components / parsys)
• Inside the jsp template there is this line:

<cq:include path="par" resourceType="foundation/components/parsys"/>

Answer 1

Each CQ5 template has a different set of components that can be defined for use. This allows you to control what authors will be allowed to use, and it makes them easier because they will only see the relevant components, not tons of CQ5 components.

When viewing a page, you can switch to what is called the "design" mode (as opposed to the "edit" or "preview" modes, where you spend most of the time creating a page). This development mode allows you to define individual settings for each template. It is accessed through the yellow bar icon at the very bottom of the sidekick.

In development mode, click the "Edit" button, which is located on the blue toolbar called "Design pairs", there you can enable the components that you want to use.

When you create components, keep in mind that the design mode and corresponding component design dialogs are a convenient way to define global parameters for each template that you do not want to install on each component instance.

Sometimes even if you have components selected from the "development mode", you may not see them.

This is because the sidekick side just needs to be enlarged to show all the components. Just go to the edge of the buddy and drag it to increase its height when the arrow appears in both directions.

Hope this helps someone because I had this problem before.

Answer 3

In my case, I already configured the allowed components using development mode, and also tried reinstalling the side server. However, none of them worked.

In my case, I decided to explicitly choose a design other than the default design. One way or another, the component property was not saved on etc / designs / default / jcr: content / templateName / parName node even after configuration in development mode.

Thus, basically you need to choose the design of your project from the page properties. Then enable and configure the allowed components in design mode. Now the components that you configured will be visible.

Answer 4

CQ5 problem with clearing the cache, if you develop your components using CRXDE Light , refresh the page once, and SideKick do not show components , logout once and login again. He will solve your problem. If you configured component and template correctly.
