[BUG] yankpad-snippet-heading-level 3 kills org-capture

[zeltak]

Hi again

so i noticed something today thats been driving me nutters past week and i can confrim 100% its casued by yankpad.

when i use this settings in my init (setq yankpad-snippet-heading-level 3) org-capture will fails and output this error

byte-code: Capture abort: (wrong-type-argument stringp nil)

when i switch back to level 2: (setq yankpad-snippet-heading-level 2)

org capture works fine

any idea?

I've tried to replicate this without success, sorry. Can you replicate it if using emacs -Q (a fresh emacs)? That would help a lot.

Hi again

sorry for the late reply..real life bogged me down this week :)

ok so i started emacs with -Q with this uber minimal init

;; If you want to create a file, visit that file with C-x C-f,
;; then enter the text in that file's own buffer.

  (setq yankpad-snippet-heading-level 2) 
 )

(setq org-directory "~/org/files/")
(setq org-default-notes-file "~/org/files/refile.org")

when i try then to call yankpad-insert now i get the following error:

org-element-table-interpreter: Symbol's function definition is void: org-table-align

i tried adding this to my config (setq org-startup-align-all-tables t) with no success. any other things i need to eval to further debug this?

Thank you, I'll look into it. Could you post the content of your yankpad file too, just in case there's something in there?

Sure here is a link to the file: https://paste.xinu.at/OxBm/

once the last bugs will get ironed out it will get much much bigger ;-)

I found the error. org-capture starts an org-mode buffer, and now yankpad tries to switch category, since you have a yankpad category called org-mode. When it switches category it goes through all the snippets, in case there's one with keybindings. You had an empty snippet (research project, since it only contained subheadings and they aren't parsed), which caused an error. This error was catched by the org-capture function, and thus it exited.

I've now fixed so that empty snippets will not cause an error. I did not get your org-table error message however...

As a side note: You have /* at the beginning of some lines, but I think you want \* (backslash instead of slash).
