Hi @SantoshSai nothing but childresource helped. Adapting to resource itself .. I see many use it online the same way. I can’t seem to understand why it worked in 6.2 and not in 6.5.12 and now wondering if @childresource with adapting to resource is the right way to go although it works for me also what gets adapted to is the carousel parent node and I need it to say, ..yes I found the node multi or not

@SantoshSai That did not work , the @Self, it points to the node that holds a resource type A. The component's HTML with resource type A invokes the model with @childresource and it seemed to work , without adapting to SlingHttpServletRequest. Are we sure we compulsorily need to adapt to SlingHttpServletRequest? http://www.sgaemsolutions.com/2017/08/deep-dive-on-sling-models-part-1.html @Model(adaptables = Resource.class)public class CarouselController {@inject@Optional@ChildResource(name = "mul...

Trying with @Inject@Optional@ChildResource(name = "multi")public Resource multi; Weird this worked on 64 and fails on 6.5.12. Will update if i succeed , this will avert the boolean check as well@SantoshSai

@SantoshSai Those paths are set in the dialog and no manipulation is done to the paths. The multi as in the original thread is referring to the root node or the multi node based on scenarios mentioned above [A] and [B]Below code is exactly that returns the root node if multi is not available or multi node if it is ,when i print multi.path in html. There is no post construct.Given the structurecarousel1/ slides multiif there is no multi node as a child node to carousel ,the controller.multi.path ...

I have a workaround , testing if the node multi is with a name "multi" and passing the boolean to the html class from model, but not super happy about it, what would you like me to test @SantoshSai

Hi @SantoshSai , thanks for the input, it did not help. I hadn't tried it per say until you brought it out but in vain@SlingObject@Optional
