We are placing this incident in Solution Proposed.



Issue Summary:


Knowledge System Property does not work"Show "Create Incident" link after a Knowledge article is rated not helpful."The Create Incident button always show even if the article hasn't been rated helpful or not. Steps1. Open a knowledge article



Solution Proposed:


The issue you reported is out of box functionality. As the UI has changed from V2 to V3 the expected behavior is to have a "create incident" button on header regardless of feedback provided.



If you need functionality same as V2. This would be a great candidate for an enhancement request. I can open up an enhancement request for you, however, it carries more weight when a customer opens the request. The reason is you have more detailed information on the use case and business case that the form asks. You can find out more about the enhancement request process and our methods for reviewing them at KB0547257.



You can see the Enhancement request by navigating to Self Service --> Enhancement Requests.



Please note that several factors contribute to the overall prioritization of an Enhancement Request and not all will necessarily become part of the product.



I am moving this incident to the solution proposed since I have provided the requested information. If you're satisfied with this information, please click "Accept Solution".



However, if you have any additional questions or concerns regarding this information, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Hello Richard,



Yes, so the way I see is that the system property you referred to should be the key here.



        glide.knowman.create_incident_link.display


        Show "Create Incident" link after a Knowledge article is rated not helpful.



However, it seems this property does the above exact action upon "no" answer on kb_view_customer.do page,


where it controls whether to show or not show the Create incident link which looks like this:


find_real_file.png
This KB view page should be accessible in your instance at instancename.service-now.com/kb_view_customer.do?sysparm_article=KB00000123



In your example screenshot above the KB article is shown using the kb_view.do page and in this case,


it appears to show the Create Incident button regardless of article being helpful or not.



To answer your question, you can hide the Create incident button from the top bar by setting your referred property (glide.knowman.create_incident_link.display) as false, which property on that page should then hide the Yes/No feedback section as well together with the button.




Please let me know if this helped.


Best regards,


Andras


Strange, your image looks like an old UI or even knowledge v2?



I just checked my personal dev environment of Helsinki and it behaves and looks the same way. Clicking helpful has no affect of the Create incident button. I'm guessing this property must relate to legacy knowledge.

Hi,



The visibility of this Button "Create Incident" is controlled with the help of a UI Macro "kb_view_common". You can refer Line Number 6 in the UI Macro for more details on this. Below Threads would be useful:
