Labels widget doesn't show anything on CommunityPage

Probably I'm doing something wrong or miss something completely, but I have problems getting the labels.widget.labels-list studio component to display something on the community page, thought that ma...

Hi luk - hit this API and check if it returns anything or not, /restapi/vc/labels

 

If it doesn't it means you don't have any labels at the community level, hence the widget is not showing up. Moreover, does this show labels when you add this widget to internal pages?

I checked that API call and get back 12 labels, as they are distributed over the content of the community, so there would definitely be data to display, also tried to go back from the custom community page to the default one with the labels component on it, but doesn't help...and yes, as I wrote, on sub level pages (e.g. ForumPage etc.) the labels show correctly...

    Bump

     

    Nobody has that same issue??

     

    What happens if you guys put the labels component on a CommunityPage, does it work?

     

    Thanks for any feedback!

      No, this is because you pre define labels against a board, not the category, so unless the labels widget is ajax based that it will re-populate every time user selects a board from drop down, this isn't a possibility.

        Yeah, that would make sense, but then the documentation should correctly reflect that and not say the following:

         

        "Displays a list of labels and the number of posts that use that label scoped to the blog, forum TKB, idea exchange, Q&A,
        or contest being viewed. Clicking on a label displays the associated post page (for example, the TKB Article Page) filtered
        to show only posts with the selected label.


        Use this component on the Community Page, category pages, and pages relating to blogs, forums, TKBs, ideas, Q&As,
        and contests"

         

        SuzieH Who would correct the docs inside the Litihum Admin?

         

        EDIT: I just checked in Admin > Features > Labels > Edit Labels, you can also set and edit Labels when on the CommunityPage, and not only when inside a board-type page...plus I have there my 12 Labels (in Admin)...so again, back to field one...this component SHOULD be able to display labels on the community page IMHO
