If ” is an Angular component, then verify that it is part of this module

Your MyComponentComponent should be in MyComponentModule.

And in MyComponentModule, you should place the MyComponentComponent inside the “exports”.

Something like this, see code below.

@NgModule({ imports: [], exports: [MyComponentComponent], declarations: [MyComponentComponent], providers: [], }) export class MyComponentModule { } 

and place the MyComponentModule in the imports in app.module.ts like this (see code below).

import { MyComponentModule } from 'your/file/path'; @NgModule({ imports: [MyComponentModule] declarations: [AppComponent], providers: [], bootstrap: [AppComponent] }) export class AppModule {} 

After doing so, the selector of your component can now be recognized by the app.

Maybe This is for name of html tag component

You use in html something like this <mycomponent></mycomponent>

You must use this <app-mycomponent></app-mycomponent>

are you importing it in your app.module.ts like so and remove the directives bit:-

@NgModule({ bootstrap: [AppComponent], imports: [MyComponentModule],// or whatever the name of the module is that declares your component. declarations: [AppComponent], providers: [] }) export class AppModule {} 

Your MyComponentModule should be like this:-

@NgModule({ imports: [], exports: [MyComponentComponent], declarations: [MyComponentComponent], providers: [], }) export class MyComponentModule { }
