WAB app icon property in app Config.json

Alexwang — Thu, 01 Feb 2018 18:59:02 GMT

Hello, does anybody have ideas of why the icon property gets added to the app config.json in WAB? please see below. The problem here is that the icon path is incorrect. it should point to "widgets/AttributeTable/images/icon.png" instead of adding /webappbuilder/apps/3/ in front. This makes all widget icons were broken when i deploy it to IIS. How can i configure in WAB to make icon path correct or just remove it?

Alex,

You must be using some old version of WAB because I do not see the icon property in my config.json

Thank Robert for your quick response. the app was indeed developed in older-version of WAB by our client and got imported into WAB 2.4. i have created a new app in WAB 2.4 and didn't see the icon property in config.json - so same result as what you got. I tried deleting the icon property from the config.json in WAB, but they got added again whenever i make any changes (like a change on a custom widget) on the app. SO how to turn off adding icon property in WAB 2.4?

Sorry I don't know how to do that.
