A subflow containing a ui-template, and packaged as a module, does not appear in dashboard config panel

[colinl]

Current Behavior

If a subflow containing a ui-template is packaged as a module and installed then the node does function correctly, but the widget does not appear in the dashboard panel.

Expected Behavior

It should appear in the panel.

Steps To Reproduce

Install this node directly from github using npm install colinl/node-red-dropdown-cdl Restart node-red and instantiate the node Dropdown CDL, which appears in the Function section. Open the node and select a Group. Note - select the correct group as due to another problem it is not possible to get back into the config again. Deploy. The dropdown appears in the dashboard but not in the dashboard config panel.

Environment

• Dashboard version: 1.6.1
• Node-RED version: 4.0.0-Beta.1
• Node.js version:20
• npm version:
• Platform/OS: Ubuntu on laptop
• Browser: Edge

Have you provided an initial effort estimate for this issue?

Colin, I think this might resolved in beta.2. i will hold off on triage of this item until I can assess this.

Please update this issue if you happen to get to it before me.

Thanks for the feedback

With NR 4.0.0 Beta.2 and dashboard 1.7.0 the node still does not appear in the dashboard panel, but does appear in the dashboard.
