Unable to edit components in AEM 6.3 Classic UI

Question

I have enabled “Open in Classic UI” option in AEM 6.3 (disabled by default) by following the instructions here.

(https://helpx.adobe.com/experience-manager/6-3/sites/administering/using/enable-classic-ui-editor.html)

But how to enable editing in classic mode?

Thanks,

Paresh

Hi Paresh,We were successfully able to edit the component in classic UI in AEM 6.3. The possible reason behind your issue is, you might not define dialog for classic UI. Please do try defining classic UI dialog and then try editing your component in classic UI. You should be able to edit your component.cq:dialog - dialog for the touch-optimized UIdialog - dialog for the classic UINOTE: A dialog defined for the classic UI will operate on the touch-optimized UI.On the other hand, a dialog defined for the touch-optimized UI will not operate on the classic UI.Depending on your instance and author environment you might want to define both types of dialog for your component.We hope this information helps!Regards,TechAspect Solutions

Adding to TechaspectThis is AsDesigned behavior because WeRetail isn't supported on Classic UI by design.You will be unable to edit WeRetail site whereas sites made from the static template are editable as mentioned by Techaspect that WeRetail do not define dialog for classic UI. A dialog defined for the classic UI will operate on the touch-optimized UI wheras a dialog defined for the touch-optimized UI will not operate on the classic UI.
