Hi,
When I try to export my org files I'm getting this error. For example:
byte-code: Before first headline at position 1 in buffer Blog.org<2>
I could not find any way to fix this - any help will be very appreciated.
Thank you,Joon

Could you please send us a minimal example and clear instructions on how
to produce this error?  I was unable to reproduce it.

Thanks,
Rasmus

Apparently it was caused by the following custom function for org-export-before-parsing-hook that I had to remove the subtree with "beameronly" tag:
(defun as/delete-ignored-heading (backend)
    (unless (equal backend 'beamer)
      ; remove subtree with beameronly tag
      (org-map-entries
       (lambda ()
         (progn
           (org-narrow-to-subtree)
           (org-cut-subtree)
           )
         )
       "+beameronly" 'tree)
      )
)
(setq org-export-before-parsing-hook '(as/delete-ignored-heading))


What I did wrong to cause this error? It worked for sum subtrees but not for others.
