org-sidebar org-sidebar-tree 'wrong type argument: stringp, nil'

Hello,

I’m new to this package, so please be gentle! I’ve been trying to use the org-sidebar-tree functionality to help navigate large Org files, but I keep getting the error:

wrong type argument: stringp, nil when running M-x org-sidebar-tree from an Org buffer.

To troubleshoot, I started fresh with a clean Spacemacs install, only adding the org and org-sidebar packages, but the error persists. All dependencies appear to be installed correctly.

I’m wondering if this is a known issue or if there’s something obvious I might be missing. Any guidance or pointers would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!

Hi,

I'll need to see the backtrace to know what's causing the error. Please do M-x toggle-debug-on-error RET, then cause the error again, then paste the *Backtrace* buffer's contents here.

Thanks heaps for the quick response :)

Backtrace is as follows:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument stringp nil)
org-sidebar-tree-view-buffer()

That shows that the error occurs in the function org-sidebar-tree-view-buffer, but since that function is byte-compiled, we can't see where in the function the error happens. So the next step is to C-h f org-sidebar-tree-view-buffer RET, view the function's source code, and C-M-x on it to re-evaluate its definition, so it will be interpreted rather than byte-compiled. Then if you trigger the error again, the backtrace should show exactly where the error occurs.

Thanks for this! And much appreciated on the steps to get through the debugging. This is what I'm getting in response:
