Custom Controller Tutorial Broken?

BradWilson1 — Tue, 09 Apr 2019 19:24:39 GMT

Is the tutorial (Create a controller widget—Web AppBuilder for ArcGIS (Developer Edition) | ArcGIS for Developers ) for creating a custom controller broken for WAB v2.11. I have been trying to get the custom controller to load but cannot seem to get it working. When reloading WAB in Step 4 of the section "Add SidebarController to the default layout" the new controller widget is just not present and there are no errors reported to the console. Any help in creating a new controller widget for WAB v2.11 would be greatly appreciated.

I have previously cleared out the .repoignore file. I can see the demo theme within WAB. When selected it lists 3 layouts

When a different layout is selected the on screen widgets go out of whack. The controller widget is still not being loaded.

Brad,

Hmm. Strange. You should not have three layouts in the demo theme if you are following the tutorial...
