Devarsi,

Going from 1.2 to 2.2 there have likely been to many changes in the widgets configuration file. You will need to start over in 2.2.

i have downloaded the files. Where in the WAB folder do i put the new unzipped folder for the esearch? Does it go in the widgets folder? Thanks

Devarsi,

Oh, I thought you had already completed that step... You need to overwrite the eSearch folder in the widgets folder of the specific app you are working with (i.e. [install dir]\server\apps\[app#]\widgets) and overwite the eSearch folder in the [install dir]\client\stemapp\widgets too.

No I mean the browsers developer tools (just hit F12) and then look for error in the console window.

Hit F12 and go to the console tab and screenshot what you see in red after you expand any of the errors
