Linking: Direct Children

Squiz Matrix Support
1

Hi,

 

When using Edit+ the direct children part of the linking screen is not showing any direct children even when they are present. 

 

On the screen it says "The following list of assets are direct children of this page. Use this list to change the order in which they appear in menus and listings."  - see attached screen shot.

I've checked the easy edit config file and it has

// PERFORMANCE FEATURE.
    // Display a list of direct children on the link screen.
    // If missing from config or false the linking screen will not display 'Direct Children'.
    showChildrenOnLinkingScreen: true
  
}; // End EasyEditConfig.

Which seems ok.  

Is there anything else that needs to be configured to enable the list of children to be shown as per the manual?

 

Thanks Georgina.

Hi Georgina,

What version of Edit+ are you using? And what does the asset structure look like? Do you get and JS errors when loading the linking screen?

Hi Bart,

 

We are using Edit+ v5.1.5.0

In the example screen shot the linking screen is for a standard page, which has three children, 2 images and 1 standard page.

 

I note when viewing the linking screen for an asset with no children - the message is "There are no direct children to list."

 

I can't see any JS errors, just incase I'm not looking in the correct place where would I find any JS errors being thrown.

If you are using Chrome or Firefox or IE10+ you can hit f12 to bring up the developer tools and look in the console tab section for any errors.

 

However seems like something might be wrong in your instance, not sure what else it could be though. You might be best off sending a support ticket into Squiz if you are a client to get someone to investigate further on your system for you.

Hi Bart,

 

Nothing shows in the console as being an apparent error.  I'll discuss with my manager raising a support job to get this investigated, as we are a squiz client.
