I am making a start on widget development, and have developed and deployed a widget after several false starts. After a false start attempting to deploy a faulty widget, I removed the widget folder from the widgets parent folder, corrected the problem, and then replaced it. I now have four copies of this widget in the builder. Two have an icon (one is a copy) and the other two do not respond and have no icon.
How do I clean this up by removing unnecessary or duplicate widgets?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Richard,
Glad it worked. Don't forget to mark the thread as answered.

Many thanks for your previous assistance.
Can you help me here? I'm a new user attempting to get my head around Widgets and Javascript. I'm trying to add a layer to test further script, and am encountering a problem (see code below).
The function below is accessed, so that my first two alerts respond. However, the "map.addLayer( ) command does respond and I receive no final alert. Is there something straightforward that I'm not getting? Commenting out the mode: and outfields: makes no difference.
alert("Adding Layer");
require(["esri/map","esri/layers/FeatureLayer","dojo/domReady!"],
function(map,FeatureLayer) {
var map = this.map;
var extent = map.extent;
var mapSpatRef = map.spatialReference;
var featureLayer = new FeatureLayer("http://sampleserver6.arcgisonline.com/arcgis/rest/services/USA/MapServer/3",{
mode: FeatureLayer.MODE_ONDEMAND,
outFields: ["*"]
});
map.addLayer(featureLayer);
alert("Layer added");
});
...
Thanks
Richard MacNeill
Richard,
Every widget has access to the WAB map using the built in var this.map. there is no need to require map or set a local var to the map only use this.map.addLayer(featureLayer);

Thanks Robert
I've removed the var map = this.map and the two succeeding var statements.
I'm still not getting any response from the map.addLayer(featureLayer) and am beginning to think the problem lies in the layer requested. Any thoughts.
Thanks
Richard
Richard,
Can you use a console.info(this.map); to check if you are in the proper scope to get access to the map?

Bad news I'm afraid.
I replaced the copy of the repoitems file that I had removed and redeployed my widget. Then restarted the WebApp builder.
Now when I edit an app, my Theme tab is empty and there are no available widgets at all.
This is clearly a more serious problem but may involve a simple link. Do you have any suggestions?
Richard
