RIBBON Effect attached to actor not showing when actor is moving in level

I have a RIBBON Effect attached to an actor to show a trail when the actor moves on the level, however when the actor moves the RIBBON Effect does not show. Does anyone have an idea why this is? Can these kind of trail effects only be attached to the player character with a movement component?

I am having the same problem.

when I move my niagara system through my blueprint I cannot see the ribbon. However, I can see the ribbon if I manually move the niagara system using the gizmo in the viewport.

Has somebody encountered this situation before ?
