I was getting below warning message, when I tried to configure Activity Feeds for entity ‘Contact’ and selected the “Enable walls for this type of record form” check box

Multiple forms of type Main are found. No Record Walls are added. Configure the walls to the required forms manually

Activity Feeds Configuration

Reason

The reason was, my ‘Contact’ entity has multiple forms of type “Main” configured and CRM does not allow us to check  “Enable walls for this type of record form” check box.

Contact Entity Multiple Forms

So to configure the walls for ‘Contact’ entity, we have to do it manually by following below steps

How to configure “Record Wall” to required forms manually
