component in sidekick, but will not appear on page

Hello, currently at a loss as to why a component I have created which appears in the Sidekick is not working. I have created a new parsys area on a page in AEM, I can drag other components into this area then edit their values, but the new component when I drag into the parsys area nothing happens. I initially copied an existing component, one which worked, so it has the same crx properties, though with different title, description etc. I have checked the properties via CRX and the properties all look similar to those of components which work, so at a loss as to why this newly created one does not work. I have read through online documentation no wiser, any ideas.

Share more details on your issue, and also check the console log(error.log file) whenever you're dragging your component from sidekcik into the parsys. 

Please visit this one properly: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9iOayEzmpLg , in this video I created page component and then created a component like textimage and it worked fine for me. May be this one can help you better.

Do you see a new node created under the parsys?

Hi,

Have you created this new component from scratch or did you copied and changed the name of it ?

Also, do the inspect element and see if the html of that component has been created or not

Looks like you have multiple div with the same id ??
