Can you check if the building block component is allowed from a custom template?

        Hi,

        Bluiding Block is a container component i.e. supertype Layout Container

        /libs/cq/experience-fragments/editor/components/buildingblock

         

        Building Block component does not have dialog to configure this component. 

         

        I am not sure why you need to drag and drop building block component, instead you can create your own component with pasys.

         

        BTW, the component is blocked to show in the component list if component name starts with buildingblock, you can try to create a copy of this component and rename it and try to use if it add any values.


        Why do I need to drag and drop? Because it is a basic functionality.

        In my case the component is "enabled" on the Experience Fragment template, but I can't drag and drop or see the component in the list. (though I can see "Layout Container" and all other enabled components)
