Dashboard is not showing Lively Blog Post macro

[Lars Böhnke]

I just installed the Lively Blog Post Macro and activated the dashboard functionality but it is not showing up. Any ideas how to fix it?

Thanks in advance

This error is now on my dashboard: Fehler beim Rendern des Makros 'lively-blog-posts-dashboard': java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Null parameter in parameters list

I'm not familiar with that macro, but there's a gotcha with using the embedded Blog Posts macro in the dashboard, per issue https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONF-38095.

If your macro config permits specifying spaces as explicit keys or meta-values (e.g. @global, @favourite), try doing that. "Null parameter in parameters list" is a message you'd normally expect to see when trying to search content with a space query of type "@self" but the search isn't running in the context of a space so @self resolves to null.
