Actual Post:

Hi All,

 

I am working with a HTL template and wanted to add some parsys components so we can make changes from the front end interface. Adding images, specifically.

 

My question is in regards to parsys resources. I have these tags in my html.

   <div class="logo" style="height:100px;">

           <sly data-sly-resource="${ @ resourceType='wcm/foundation/components/parsys'}"></sly>

   </div>

 

The problem is that from the front end editor these show as very tiny lines, and its impossible to click them. And if I click them and add an image to them, I have to refresh my browser because the changes aren't reflected in my current session. I don't see any errors in the console log.

Is there something I need to do to make these bigger? Viewing the source shows them having a class as container is-disabled. Could that be my issue? I can add a new component to the ones I can click, but clicking them is the hard part. If you also have any ideas for why I may have to refresh the browser for any changes to show up. (I.E, I add a new image but the option to configure it does not show up until I refresh the page)

 

 

<div data-type="Editable" data-path="/content/vhhomecare/Home/jcr:content/left-par" tabindex="0" draggable="false" class="cq-Overlay cq-Overlay--component cq-Overlay--container is-disabled" title="Paragraph System - HTL [Root]" style="top: 224px; left: 8px; width: 1887px; height: 37px;"><span title="Paragraph System - HTL [Root]" class="cq-Overlay--component-name">Paragraph System - HTL [Root]</span><div data-type="Editable" data-path="/content/vhhomecare/Home/jcr:content/left-par/*" tabindex="0" draggable="false" data-text="Drag components here" title="Paragraph System - HTL [Root]" class="cq-Overlay cq-Overlay--component cq-droptarget cq-Overlay--placeholder is-selected is-active" style="top: 0px; left: 0px; width: 1887px; height: 0px;"></div>

Let me know what you guys think or if I'm even doing this the right way, thanks for your help.

Hi Zeeshank,

Thanks for your responses, I was able to figure out my problem! I needed to add an image as one of the allowed components in the design tab before I could click them in the edit tab. It had no allowed components so it wasn't clickable.

They are still very small and every time I add a component to a parsys, I need to refresh the browser to get it to update. Any ideas why this would be happening?

Not the worst, but at least I can add things again!

Thanks

Brendan
