Static Template on the ADOBE AEM 6.4

Hi Guys,

Anyone had the problem using the component parsys in the Static Template?

I was creating static template but it isn't showing the edit option on the parsys component.

Show the screens bellow.

Anyone can I help me?

If you are using static template in touch UI, then you'd need to follow the old approach of adding the components/component group via 'template design'.

  1. Click on the dropdown/caret next to EDIT button, choose 'Design'
  2. Navigate to your parsys component
  3. Add the specific components/groups to that parsys component
  4. Change the mode back to EDIT
  5. Click on the parsys component and you should see '+' sign to add the component(s) to the parsys

I will look into this.

However - in AEM 6.4 - static templates no longer represent best practice. Adobe recommends Editable Templates -- Scott's Digital Community: Guided Journey for Experience Manager on Editable Templates

On 6.4 - i setup a little project where my parsys component was embedded into the script of the page - like this:

It works fine.

gauravb10066713 Do we need to do this always when I create the new page?

Hi,

It works for me as well.

What you need to do is simply test and include the parsys in the component JSP in the below way.

<html>

<%@include file="/libs/foundation/global.jsp" %>

<cq:include script="/libs/wcm/core/components/init/init.jsp"/>

<body>

<h1>Here is where your custom AEM Column component will go</h1>

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

</body>

</html>

It will work. It works for me. Below is the screenshots.

Hope this helps!!

Thanks,

Ratna Kumar.

Hi,

If you use HTL i.e, ex: main.html then it is not recommended to use static templates.

Please use Editable templates.

Thanks,

Ratna Kumar.
