Hello,

I’ve the following situation involving a rebase configuration:

Created a new context for company address page where I did some changes (removed tabs, fields etc) and most importantly, to one of the page’s selectors:

Modifications in the page

 

Modifications in the page’s selector

 

Then I’ve created a new command through code customization and added it in the selector:

Adding command to the selector’s page through code customization

 

After the deploy, the command appears without problems in global context:

 

Custom command in page

But for my context_test, the command doesn’t appear because the selector was modified through the page designer and a warning appears saying a rebase is needed, so far it is normal behaviour:

 

Custom command not appearing in a personalized context

 

But when I click to rebase, the command only appears if I apply the entire selector which in the process, I lose all my modifications unless I revert them one by one:

 

Before clicking to rebase the entire selector
After clicking modifications are lost
Reverted each modification individually
Finished rebase process

 

This is the intended behaviour for selectors or there is another way to do this rebase without the need of reverting back one by one the other modifications?

    ​@psidoclbr this seems like a larger issue of mixing configuration with customizations.

      ​@PhillBronson this happened in a customer’s environment that is heavily customized. They are constantly creating new customizations and also configuring contexts because each area has different access or different views on some pages. My thoughts for this case in particular would be for the element that enable if the command appears or not to appear inside the selector structure, so the only action would be to apply that specific element instead of applying the entire selector.

      ​@psidoclbr I hear ya, the only configuration here is the context.

      I am curious what the command on the incoming customized selector looked like before applying rebase to the entire selector. You may have been able to bring the command in on its own without changing the other items. I also don’t think this is unique behavior to selectors. 


      Personally, we control visibility in the code using the same things that context configuration would use, plus more. So it can still be updated on the front end but without messing with configurations
