NewsPublisher Edit Button Behavior

Just installed NewsPublisher and when I click the edit button produced by the snippet, the system redirects to resource ID=22. This resource doesn't exist, and currently the site only has 17 resources in total, so where this behavior comes from is a big mystery.
Here's the editor code:

[[!NewsPublisher?
        &show=`pagetitle,description,pub_date,introtext,TV1,TV2`
        &initrte=`1`
        &initdatepicker=`1`
        &rtcontent=`1`
        &rtsummary=`1`
        &parentid=`12`
        &published=`1`
        &captions=`content:Enter Post,introtext:Summary,description:Give a brief description`
    ]]

and snippet call in the template:

[[!NpEditThisButton? &editHome=`1`]]

Any ideas on why this isn't functioning as expected?

Try adding &np_id=`##` to the edit button tag (where ## is the ID of the NewsPublisher page).

I think 22 is the ID of *my* NewsPublisher page. wink

It's not supposed to be set in the package.

Check the properties tab of the Edit button snippet.

Yep, I must have run the snippet before removing that param, because '22' was set on the properties tab. All good to go - thanks.

It's not your fault. It's an error in the distribution. I just did a silent update on it.
