Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'id' of null

[mStudios]

While developing I'm getting an "Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'id' of null" error.

Odd thing is, first it's all fine, preview, publish, all works. Next day I come back to the exact same file and I get this error, I get it when opening the project file and previewing but also when I point my browser to the locally published banner. Clearing cache and hard reloading does not help.

The project is set to polite-loading. What I see is the polite-loading image come up, then the display:none and then nothing. In the HTML it only shows the empty wrapper tag for the content of the banner.

How can I fix this?

Hi ,

I'm not sure why you are getting this error.  It might be due to missing / corrupt elements in your project .  If possible can you  attach your Pre-published  GWD source file   here or send it to gwd-s...@google.com  for us to debug ?

Thanks

I'm having the same problem, what was the solution?

On my side I was able to resolve the issue by changing
the id from "gwd-ad" to "pagedeck".
Example:
from: gwd.actions.gwdDoubleclick.goToPage('gwd-ad'
to gwd.actions.gwdDoubleclick.goToPage('pagedeck'

I hope Google can fix this bug quickly on google web designer.

Thanks
