XF 2.3 Nodes are gone (but not really)

[Shawn Gossman]

Here's the forum:

https://thehikingforum.com/

All the nodes vanished from the homepage after I did something in Widgets bit I can't figure out that I did.

The nodes are still on AdminCP. Permissions are fine.

Getting these server errors:

Template public:forum_overview_wrapper error: No widget defined with a widget_key of forum_overview_forum_statistics

How in the heck did I just break my forum?

I added the online statistics widget with the name "forum_overview_forum_statistics" for the widget key and the nodes came back. I'm sure if I delete that widget, they'll vanish again.

That's a "problem" with Bolt. Style properties -> Bolt properties -> Enable statistics. It's calling the default XenForo stats widget.

I don't think there's really a way to check if it exists as far as I recall. Sorry for the trouble. I'll look again to see if we can't avoid that.

That fixed it

No need to apologize. Thank you @Russ

I'm just glad I didn't break something. I haven't had a good "break the whole forum" episode for at least 15 years LOL
