Duplicating a custom component

Avatar

Level 9

Hi All,

1] Suppose, I have a custom component say 'x'. I want to create a duplicate of this and rename that to 'x-duplicate'.

2] Also, in content.xml I have changed the jcr:title to "x" and "x-duplicate" respectively.

3] The sling:resourceType of the components respectively, when added on the page is as below:

a/b/c/x

a/b/c/x-duplicate

4] However, the duplicate component when added on the page is not visible in author, but can be seen in backend[crxde].

Am I missing anything. Any thoughts on this will be helpful.

Make sure the jsp or sightly file of the component is having same name as of component. If you haven't changed it, do now.

x-duplicate.jsp or x-duplicate.html

Hi Edubey,

Thank you for your reply.

My bad, had changed it to x-duplicate.html, but had not given a build. 

Once again, thank you.
