Upgrading SmartEdit from 6.4 to 2205 Contextual Menu not loading

[andreas_estermann]

I have upgraded our solution from Hybris 6.4 to SAP CX 22.05.7 with steps at 6.7 and 20.11. We use SmartEdit to edit the CMS.

The top menu works fine, I can browse through the navigation / page list and also see all components. However, I do not get the contextual menu for our content slots when I switch the page to edit mode. The preview of the page does not change whether I am in preview or any of the edit modes. I can drag new components onto the preview area but I cannot drop them in any existing content slots.

There are no error messages in the js console in the browser, I just get those warnings:

Failed to load legacy AngularJS module cmssmartedit into legacySmartedit; SmartEdit functionality may be compromised.

It worked fine in version 20.11.

We use the old legacy cms tld from the storefront:

<%@ taglib prefix="cms" uri="http://hybris.com/tld/cmstags" %>
<cms:pageSlot position="Section1" var="feature">
	<cms:component component="${feature}" element="div" class="clazz"/>
</cms:pageSlot>

Is the old legacy SmartEdit functionality no longer supported in 22.05 or what am I missing?

hey andreas.estermann , did you manage to solve this issue? If so, please, could you post the fix?

[andreas_estermann]

alemasetto : Unfortunately not yet. I had to work on some interface issues and will get back to this in the next weeks.

I have had time to get back to the issue and found the problem in my case.

The project.properties file was missing in the smarteditaddon extension (modules\smartedit\deprecated\smarteditaddon\project.properties).

The location of the extension changed so that the file was not created during the customize task in the build process (it was created in the wrong place).

As a consequence the smarteditaddon.js was missing on all pages.

<script type="text/javascript" src="/_ui/addons/smarteditaddon/responsive/common/js/smarteditaddon.js"></script>

@andreas_estermann  I am having the same warnings but I get the contextual menu. This error is only happening in 2205, I don't see this issue in 2211. The content of smarteditcontainer.js is vastly different between 2205 and 2211. The content of smarteditaddon.js is pretty much empty except for a copyright comment at the top of the file. There is absolutely nothing else in there so I don't know if you did something else to resolve your issue.
