🧩 Problem Summary

I am getting the following EF Core runtime error when navigating to a page that queries a custom module entity:

The entity type ExtraPropertyDictionary requires a primary key to be defined. If you intended to use a keyless entity type, call HasNoKey in OnModelCreating.

This occurs during runtime DbContext model initialization (first repository access), not during migrations.

The entity in question inherits from FullAuditedAggregateRoot<Guid> and does not explicitly define or map ExtraPropertyDictionary.

🧪 Environment

ABP version: 10.0.1 (Commercial / Pro)

Created with: ABP Studio

Architecture:

Tiered solution

Modular (apps + modules folder structure)

Database: SQL Server

ORM: EF Core

Identity: ABP Identity / Identity Pro

Frontend: Angular

💥 Exception message and full stack trace The entity type 'ExtraPropertyDictionary' requires a primary key to be defined. If you intended to use a keyless entity type, call 'HasNoKey' in 'OnModelCreating'. For more information on keyless entity types, see https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2141943.

}

ExtraProperties and ConcurrencyStamp are inherited from FullAuditedAggregateRoot

I did not define ExtraPropertyDictionary anywhere in my code

    b.HasOne&lt;IdentityUser&gt;()
        .WithMany()
        .HasForeignKey(x => x.UserId)
        .OnDelete(DeleteBehavior.SetNull);
});

}

}

🔁 Steps to Reproduce

Create a new ABP 10.0.1 solution using ABP Studio (tiered, modular).

Create a custom module.

Add an entity inheriting from FullAuditedAggregateRoot<Guid>.

Add EF Core mapping using ConfigureByConvention().

Reference IdentityUser with a FK (HasOne<IdentityUser>()).

Run the application.

Navigate to a page that queries the entity via an EF Core repository.

➡️ Runtime throws ExtraPropertyDictionary requires a primary key.

❓ What I’m Trying to Understand

Is this a missing or new required configuration in ABP 10.x for modular DbContexts?

Should ConfigureObjectExtensions() be required explicitly in runtime DbContexts?

Is there an ordering requirement between:

ConfigureObjectExtensions

ConfigureIdentity / ConfigureIdentityPro

custom module mappings?

Is there a recommended pattern when custom modules reference IdentityUser and use audited aggregate roots?

I expected FullAuditedAggregateRoot + ConfigureByConvention() to be sufficient, as in earlier ABP versions.

✅ What I’ve Already Tried

Removing the IdentityUser relationship (error still occurs)

Verifying no DbSet<ExtraPropertyDictionary> exists

Verifying no explicit modelBuilder.Entity<ExtraPropertyDictionary>()

Comparing with GitHub issue #9602 and similar threads

It looks to me like I'd have to replace the whole navbar.

How can I add a request for the Lepton-X theme to be changed so that when its expanded the collapse icon is visible:

and when Its collapsed, the expand icon is visble:

Also making accessible as a button would be preferred.

thanks

I’ve reviewed the latest ABP documentation and samples, but couldn’t find guidance on extending LeptonX UI behavior for accessibility (keyboard interaction and ARIA support).

Context In the LeptonX UI layout, the left navigation menu includes a collapse icon (the small ) that narrows the sidebar to icon-only mode. When collapsed, it automatically expands again when hovered with the mouse.

However, this interaction currently depends entirely on mouse hover, which makes it inaccessible to keyboard and screen reader users. When the menu is collapsed, there’s no keyboard-focusable control available to re-expand it.

What I’m Trying to Achieve

I’d like to implement keyboard accessibility and ARIA support for the LeptonX sidebar collapse/expand toggle, in alignment with WCAG 2.1 AA requirements.

Specifically, the improvements should:

  • Make the collapse icon keyboard focusable ( or role="button").
  • Toggle the sidebar state on Enter/Space.
  • Expose the menu’s state via aria-expanded="true|false".
  • Keep a persistent, focusable toggle even when the sidebar is collapsed.
  • Optionally expand the sidebar when it gains keyboard focus (to match hover behavior).

Current HTML Structure <lpx-icon iconclass="bi bi-filter-left" class="menu-collapse-icon hidden-in-hover-trigger" ng-reflect-icon-class="bi bi-filter-left"> <i aria-hidden="true" class="lpx-icon bi bi-filter-left"></i> </lpx-icon>

Goal Example (Accessible Version) <button type="button" class="menu-collapse-icon" [attr.aria-label]="isCollapsed ? 'Expand navigation' : 'Collapse navigation'" [attr.aria-expanded]="!isCollapsed" (click)="toggleSidebar()"> Where toggleSidebar() updates the isCollapsed state and toggles a CSS class on the sidebar container.

Request for Assistance Could you please advise on:

  • The best practice or extension point in LeptonX layout to override or extend this behavior cleanly?
  • Whether there’s a recommended way to customize or replace the collapse icon template within the lpx-layout component.
  • If any ABP-provided directive/service already handles sidebar state so we can bind to it instead of reimplementing the logic.
  • Any considerations to maintain compatibility with LeptonX hover-trigger behavior while adding focus-trigger support.

Environment Info ABP Framework Version: 9.x UI Framework: Angular (LeptonX Theme) Solution Type: Modular Monolith (ABP Commercial) Browser: Chrome 141 Accessibility Tools Used: NVDA, Axe, and WAVE

Steps to Reproduce

Run the Angular application with LeptonX theme. Collapse the left navigation using the collapse icon. Attempt to re-expand using only the keyboard — there’s no focusable element. Observe: menu can only expand on mouse hover, not via keyboard.

Expected Result

Keyboard users should be able to toggle the sidebar state using Tab + Enter/Space, and assistive technologies should receive correct aria-expanded and label updates.
