Description of the problem: I am trying to run a self-paced moving window experiment via Pavlovia. The Python code works fine offline, but I can not try out if the experiment will work online because of the error:

We could not find a record for experiment designer: undefined. Please check the name and try again. If the error persists, contact Pavlovia’s administrator.

I used a Code Component in Builder for dashing my sentences and proceeding through the sentences. For translating the Python code to JS code, I used the new auto-JS functionality with some changes:

I posted this in the “Begin Experiment” tab, as suggested here: PsychoPy Python to Javascript crib sheet

  • thisExp=psychoJS.experiment;
    win=psychoJS.window;

I made the function global, as suggested to me in an earlier post:

  • replaceWithDash = function (textList, currentWordNumber) {
    var dashSentence, word;
    dashSentence = “”;
    for (var index = 0, _pj_a = textList.length; (index < _pj_a); index += 1) {
    word = textList[index];
    if ((index !== currentWordNumber)) {
    dashSentence = ((dashSentence + (“-” * word.length)) + " “);
    } else {
    dashSentence = (((” " + dashSentence) + word) + " ");
    }
    }
    return dashSentence.strip();
    }

I suspect something went wrong in the translation for the JS code.

Any help would be much appreciated!
