Recently I updated site for Sumac. There is a sidebar toggled navigator, but course components do not show up. Is there anything that I can change in setting or configuration to populate the course components in sidebar?. I really appreciate for any help .
This is interesting. Are you using the Indigo theme?
Yes, I am using indigo
@hinakhadim I know you previously looked into sidebar issues with Indigo. Have you seen this?
@hkhanal01 is it possible to turn indigo off as a test and see if that resolves the issue?
@sarina Thank you for quick response. I have not seen sidebar navigation in previous version and i did not have issue using indigo
I will check with turning off Indigo
I can see Sidebar Menu in couple of courses. Seems like it is not an issue of Indio theme. But in few courses, i see an issue loading content in sidebar Navigator.

What type(s) of Xblocks are failing? Are they standard blocks (capa problems, text blocks) or custom ones?
Xblocks are customized. I created following their guidelines
@Chelsea_Rathbun - so it seems the sidebar might not be working with custom XBlocks. Is there a developer of the feature we could pull in here?
@hkhanal01 are your custom blocks public, so the team could try them out?
@sarina we have not published those xblocks. Thank you for your help. I resolved the issue.
- Review carefully to see if any structure components (especially sequentials) appear as strings
or blank instead of JSON.tutor local run lms ./manage.py lms dump_course_structure course-v1:GenAI+2024 --settings=tutor.production - Delete those blanks and strings from your CMS course outline
- Re-index the Course Structure:
tutor local run cms ./manage.py cms reindex_course --course=course-v1:GenAI+2024Q1 --settings=tutor.production - Remove caches:
tutor local exec redis redis-cli flushall - Restart your LMS and CMS:
tutor local restart lms cms
Glad to see that you were able to resolve the issue!
