related_blog_posts not working

[JHeatwole]

Hi everyone,

I am using a related_blog_posts tag with a callback that was working fine before today, but now I'm getting an "IllegalArgumentException: Cannot convert property featuredImageResizeOptions to query parameter, OBJECT is not a valid type" error event though I didn't change anything and the related posts won't render. Is anyone else getting this error?

Example page: https://blog-mandrytechnology-com.sandbox.hs-sites.com/services/mandry-manage

Under the "Recent Managed IT Services Resources" heading

------

Module code:

{% related_blog_posts blog_ids="{{ module.blog_field }}", tags="{{ module.tag_field }}", limit='{{ module.number_to_show }}', callback="blog_post_formatter" %}

<script>
var blog_post_formatter = function(blogposts) {

var formatted = '<div class="row row-cols-1 row-cols-md-2 row-cols-lg-{{ module.number_of_columns }} g-4">';
for (var i = 0; i < blogposts.length; i++) {
var blogpost = blogposts[i];
formatted += '<div class="col">';
formatted += '<div class="card h-100">';
{% if module.show_image %}formatted += `<div class="card-img-top card-img-div" alt="${blogpost.featuredImageAltText}" style="background-image: url(${blogpost.featuredImage});
background-size: cover; height: 250px;"></div>`;{% endif %}
formatted += '<div class="card-body d-flex flex-column align-items-start">';
formatted += `<h5 class="card-title pb-3">${blogpost.name}</h5>`;
{% if module.show_description %}formatted += `${blogpost.postSummary}`;{% endif %}
formatted += `<a href="${blogpost.url}" class="btn btn-outline-primary mt-auto">{% inline_text field="button_label" value="{{ module.button_label }}" %}</a>`;
formatted += '</div>';
formatted += '</div>';
formatted += '</div>';
}
formatted += '</div>';
return formatted;
}
</script>

Thanks!

@dennisedson @WendyGoh Could you just confirm if the related_blog_posts is actually working as expected ?
I am currently getting blog posts, but seems like the limit being set to 200 breaks the query. Setting it to up to 199 works as expected, from 200 the latest post I have isn't fetched.

199 - https://www.lancom.tech/_hcms/related-blog-posts-callback?targetBlogIds=36370869714&macro=default&li...

200 - https://www.lancom.tech/_hcms/related-blog-posts-callback?targetBlogIds=36370869714&macro=default&li...

I have not seen any reports that it isn't working as expected currently 🤔

[JHeatwole]

@dennisedson @RMarins @neobats Never mind! They are showing now. Thank you everyone!

[JHeatwole]

@RMarins @neobats 

Haha no worries @dennisedson. I did notice it was working where I just have it as a regular module added to pages (example: https://blog-mandrytechnology-com.sandbox.hs-sites.com/services/mandry-manage), but it still isn't working where it's part of my blog template (example: https://blog.mandrytechnology.com/resources/supporting-a-worthy-cause-foundation-for-hcm). Is anyone else having that issue?

[RMarins]

@dennisedson@JHeatwole @neobats Looks like it's all working again. Could you confirm that you are also seeing this ?

[dennisedson · Accepted solution]

I did a terrible job watching this issue 😞

Looks like a fix was deployed at 10.17am est.

[neobats]

Hey Dennis! We saw the fix. I just verified that at least for me (cc. @JHeatwole ) that it's working in my blog template in my sandbox.

[WendyGoh]

Hey @JHeatwole  @neobats,

Happy to help here 🙂 

Thanks for pointing this out! I was able to reproduce this error as well.

For this case, I've reached out to our internal team to check on it and I'll keep you both posted here.

[neobats]

Hey WendyGoh!

Thanks for this update! Do you have an ETA on when we could expect a fix or how we could roll back to a previous version?

[dennisedson]

Hey all!
Wendy is out for the day.  I will monitor this issue and report back when there is a fix.

Thanks for reporting !

[JHeatwole]

Thanks so much!

[RMarins]

Yep, I'm getting the exact same issue. Working fine before today and all of the sudden it stopped working. I can only assume this is an internal issue with the related_blog_posts method.
I have it on a module and a few templates (Pages,Blogs).

[neobats]

I'm getting this all of a sudden too. The markup hasn't changed from when it was working.

[JHeatwole]

Same. I talked to support and I think they thought I just messed the module up at first but because it's happening for you too, he said they are going to check on it internally.

[neobats]

I did some more poking around and in another template, I added the module as a dnd_module, and it worked fine.

Where I'm encountering the issue is in a blog page template, which does not support dnd_areas, so I can't try the same fix.

[JHeatwole]

Interesting. Yes I have it on a blog page template but also as a module that I just add to pages as needed and isn't part of the page template and it's not working in either place. It seems to be an issue with the related_blog_posts tag itself because the error shows up even if that tag is the only thing that exists in the code (screenshots below).

related_blog_posts tag only:
