Unable to select the components on a page

Hi, I want to perform a rollout only for the selected components in the page. I notice that I am not able to select any of the components present in the pages using the small checkbox in the component's edit bar. I am not sure why this is happening. All of them are custom components and not OOTB ones. Any solutions to this, please share them. Thanks in advance!

    Hi, Thanks for the reply & yes, they are appearing on the sidekick. However, I just discovered the fix. The EditBar.js has a listener with the following lines of code

    listeners: {
                    check: function(cb, checked) {
                        if (checked) {
                            CQ.WCM.select(editBar, true);

    where 'check' has to be replaced with selectionChanged. Once I tried that, it worked!

    Are they appearing on the sidekick? How were they created - was an online reference followed?

      We try to selecting certain components for MSM rollout, and face the same issue, not be able to select a component since the checkbox on the component edit bar doesn't work properly. I have tested your code, it works fine. Just wonder if Adobe released a hot fix for this issue?
