Hi! Somewhere while upgrading from 2.4.0.beta1 to 2.4.0.beta2 to 2.4.0.beta4 (not sure on which upgrade exactly) the registration modal stopped showing up for new users. We use the OpenID Connect plugin to authenticate our users. Login is required, local logins are disabled and new registrations a…

I was able to fix those particular error messages in this commit. Not sure if it fixes the modal issue, but it seems related. https://github.com/discourse/discourse-knowledge-base-theme/commit/04ff864caf6823d37cb3cb1c153e0b7ed392fd3d

Fantastic, you were right! Removing the Knowledge Base component from the theme made the modal appear again! I obviously installed the component between one of those upgrades.

[image] justin: did you have any categories listed in the kb categories theme setting while it was enabled? Indeed, I had no categories listed. But the modal does not display even after choosing one. Maybe related, but maybe something totally different: The default to kb view setting has no …

Are you seeing those same errors in logs? What’s happening here is there’s a route getting triggered that’s trying to look for the knowledge base component before it’s loaded.

I added another commit with some additional checks to stop trying to query uninitialized items. https://github.com/discourse/discourse-knowledge-base-theme/commit/e0d7813e9f4b9c6031de6eb5a062ed4434a83069
