page-explorer periodically stops working

[DeliriumCode]

After a clicking on maybe the third or so page link generated from the page-explorer control, all the page explorer links disappear
Clearing the cache sometimes causes it to come back.

I have a basic wiki setup with the following sidebar:

<bar background-color="gradient-light" color="secondary" line-spacing="md">
<btn width="fit">
[[getting_started]]
</btn>

**Support Groups**
<page-explorer tree line-spacing="xs" ns="support_groups:"></page-explorer>
**Social Groups**
<page-explorer tree line-spacing="xs" ns="social_groups:"></page-explorer>
**Crisis**
<page-explorer tree line-spacing="xs" ns="crisis:"></page-explorer>
**Events** 
<page-explorer tree line-spacing="xs" ns="events:"></page-explorer>
**Medical**
<page-explorer tree line-spacing="xs" ns="medical:"></page-explorer>
**Services**
<page-explorer tree line-spacing="xs" ns="Services:"></page-explorer>
**Organisations**
<page-explorer tree line-spacing="xs" ns="organisations:"></page-explorer>
**User Content**
<page-explorer tree line-spacing="xs" ns="user_content:"></page-explorer>
**Wiki** 
<page-explorer tree line-spacing="xs" ns="wiki:"></page-explorer>
</bar>

This looks like it was caused by not having a preceding : in the ns=
i.e.
Changing
<page-explorer tree line-spacing="xs" ns="support_groups:"></page-explorer>
to
<page-explorer tree line-spacing="xs" ns=":support_groups:"></page-explorer>
Resolves this issue...

Thanks for reporting.

The ns attribute takes the default value of the requested page. I added it for documentation purpose.

If you use the same sidebar, you just need to create one at the root with:

<page-explorer tree line-spacing="xs" ></page-explorer>

I check the bug.

So i wanted control over the order. I also wanted the sidebar to be the same on all pages rather than just the current namespace.

[gerardnico]

Ah ok ... I get it. Nice!

You should use a box in place of a bar. ie

<box background-color="gradient-light" color="secondary" line-spacing="md">
</box>

The name bar is not good as it's much more a big chunk section of a whole page.
It responds to the container when the page layout is a landing page.

I try to reproduce your error but I couldn't figure it out. I have added a guard so that it will not happen again. Thanks for trace. Really helpful and all the best with your publication.

So i think it is linked to when the cache of the page-explorer is generated and the current page.

If you turn off caching, it works on the root page but not the child pages as i wasn't putting a : before the ns part.

so user navigates to site, it all works. If the cache gets invalidated, its regenerated based off the current page.

Caching is a bad beast. Thanks for the feedback. I will look at it.
