Knowledge blocks disabled

Hi Team,

 

I'm facing this issue wherein the Knowledge block field seems to be disabled/read only. I had recently installed Knowledge blocks. The issue seems to happen with only one of the knowledge bases. 

 

Any idea what the issue could be?

Hi Team, 

 

I was able to fix the issue.

 

So I had created the KB block in earlier version and taken xml back up of the same. When we cloned prod to dev & upgraded it, we had to install KB block plugin again. 

I uploaded this xml backup in the KB Block table and as per the OOTB client script "Make Enable Blocks Read Only"

it was setting the field to readonly.

 

Solution:

1. Deleted my xml uploaded.

and was then able to access the 'Enable Blocks' field.

2. Enabled the blocks on the Knowledge base.

3. Re uploaded the xml.

worked fine.

 

Thanks
Johnny

Hi @JohnnySnow ,

How to install Knowledge Block in PDI.

You can activate knowledge blocks [com.snc.knowledge_blocks] if you have the admin role. This plugin includes demo data and activates related plugins if they are not already active.

Before you begin

Role required: admin
