Angular 2 'component' is not a known element

Question

I\'m trying to use a component I created inside the AppModule in other modules. I get the following error though:

\"Uncaught (in promise): Error: Temp

Answer 1

In my case, my app had multiple layers of modules, so the module I was trying to import had to be added into the module parent that actually used it pages.module.ts, instead of app.module.ts.
