Unexpected Error after creating a new custom page

Hey guys,

 

to change the design of our community I started to adding some custom layouts and pages. Currently, I want to change the design of our QandQQuestionPage. Within this standard page type I nest my custom page "QuestionDetail".

 

If my custom page is empty and no components were placed, everything works fine, but if I begin adding some components from the QandAQuestion page type (e.g. author, body, etc.) I get a blank page with only one short message "An unexpected error occured."

 

But if I add widgets like the Search Form (common.widget.search-form) no error occured and everything works fine.

 

My custom page also uses a custom layout.

 

Does anybody got an idea why this error occurs?

 

Thanks for your help and best regards,

Christian

    Hi cike - Some out of the box components work on some specific pages, you cannot use them on every page. The search form component you mentioned is a global component and will work on each and every page, even the custom ones. You can have a look at the description and usability of each of these component from the studio which provide the details on where can this be used.
