Esearch custom widget not working

SaraEL_MALKI — Thu, 06 Sep 2018 14:40:49 GMT

Hello guys,

It's my fisrt time using a custom widget and adding it to my Portal following these steps:

Add custom widgets—Portal for ArcGIS | ArcGIS Enterprise

I tried to add the Esearch widget on:

Enhanced Search Widget Version 2.7 - 2/23/18

When I try to use it, the link "Add a search layer" does not open a windows for me, instead it creates an empty line at "Search title" like in the image below:

I don't know what's the reason, is it my fault ?

Sara,

Portal is several version behind when it comes to the version of WAB it is running. So you using 2.7 of my widget is likely the issue. What version of Portal are you using?

Sara,

Then you need to download the eSearch 2.6 version

Sara,

What is the error in your browsers web console (open develop tools F12)?

Sara,

So it looks like you are using French locale and there seems to be an issue with my translation string for "Force Scale" in the

eSearch\setting\nls\fr\strings.js. I have forceScale: "force de l\'échelle", which produces the error you are showing so edit the eSearch\setting\nls\fr\strings.js and change forceScale: "force de l\'échelle" to something else that does not use \'é. Maybe: "Échelle de force"

Hmm. Some how you are not getting the updated file then. I am not a Portal user so I am not sure what you are missing.
