Which version of acs commons is required?

can I directly install the package, or have to deploy via maven dependency?

[Ratna_Kumar]

Hi Manisha,

You can download the latest ACS Commons package which is located in this URL: Adobe AEM Commons - In this page - click on "Download the AEM package".

You can directly install the package in package manager and not to deploy via maven dependency.

Thanks,

Ratna Kumar.

The ACS-Commons is shown in this 6.3 article - which will still work on 6.2 -- Creating an AEM HTML Template Language 6.3 component that uses a Multifield

Hi Manisha,

Make a check on the below points to see if your multifield is able to hold values in the dialog:

-  ACS Commons bundle is active in your instance.

- fieldset(granite/ui/components/foundation/form/fieldset) node under multifield(granite/ui/components/foundation/form/multifield) node has property "acs-commons-nested" set to blank as follows.

Hi Manisha,

There might be the issue with the local instance.

I would suggest deploy both the packages i.e., content package and ACS commons paclage which is mentioned in the article on fresh local instance and try it.

Thanks,

Ratna Kumar.

HI Manisha,

In the process of editing multifield (like hit on add field), see if you get any console errors. if yes, please do share the snapshot.

Hello All,

Anyone got any solution for this issue. Same thing is happening with us as well. We have created Multi field components on dev environment , On dev environment these multifield components is working fine. When deployed these components on AMS  cloud these components are not working. As mentioned in this post , dialog is taking values from users but doesn't store in repository and resulting empty JSON to  WCMUsePojo.java

We have also tried to  installed ACS common 3.17.0  - 3.17.4 but no luck.

We are currently on AEM 6.3 SP 2

Thanks,

Tushar

If you are on AEM 6.3 - you should be using coral 3 Multi field as discussed here -- Building Experience Manager Components using Granite/Coral Resource Types
