WSO2 DAS Dashboard - Delete unused pages

Question

I can't delete nor edit pages created in WSO2 DAS Dashboard. The home page works fine with the pre-configured gadgets, but I created 2 new pages and I can't delete them now. I also can't change the name of them, or add gadgets, or anything.

Answer 1

Can you let us know what you see in the browser console when you try to delete them ? Dashboard configuration is saved in the registry as a json and you can edit it and delete the unwanted pages if needed. You can browse the registry from management console. Your created dashboard will be in following registry path

/_system/config/ues/dashboards/yourDashboardName

You will see a pages array as "pages":[].

EDIT: This solution may work for you : As mentioned above retrieve the json file and in above pages array in your first page(which is working correctly) you will see a json path as

"content":{  
            "default":{

Inside that there will be many gadget json configurations starting with a, b ,c etc like below

"d":[  
                  {  
                     "id":"OnBoardingRequest-overall-0",
                     "content":{  
                        "id":"OnBoardingRequest-overall",
                        "title":"OnBoardingRequest-overall",
                        "type":"gadget",

                        "data":{  
                           "url":"fs://gadget/OnBoardingRequest-overall/gadget.xml"
                        },
                        "styles":{

                  {

                              "required":true
                           }
                        },
                        "locale_titles":{  

                        }
                     }
                  }
               ],

In those check for id which corresponds to your gadget names and see whether you have a name which you do not have at the moment. May be you have deleted it and now its not using anymore. if its there remove the whole a, or b or what ever the corresponding section. Please take a backup before doing so. Then save it . And it should work. As a workaround you can delete the dashboard and create a new one and add the gadgets. Hope this helps

Answer 2

Yes, I can delete them in the registry, but I can't edit them in the dashboard editor. I can't even change their name, or press the delete button. When I press the name of the page to expand the settings of the page, it doesn't show anything, and the error in the console is the following:

index.js:179 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'site' of undefined
