Can't select a Content relationship field after updating a custom-type

Developing with Prismic

I am having issues where I've added a Content Relationship Field to an existing Slice and when going to the document to add it in, it doesn't open the sidebar for me to select content.
There is this error message in the console. Any Ideas?

I removed the Field placeholder value and it seems to have solved the problem.
The issue is either having a text value in the field placeholder or the placeholder starting with the Astrid * character.

Hi Tyron,

Welcome to the community!

This is an interesting one that I haven't seen before. I was able to recreate this on my side and I've passed the example to the dev team to investigate.

Thanks.

@Phil Hey there,
I just came across this same Prismic bug. Took me a while to figure out what the issue was - the asterisk anywhere in the placeholder would throw an error for me.

This is an error on Prismic's side so I'd hope that you guys can push a simple fix to either disallow entering this special character or display a visual error so others don't waste time troubleshooting this error.

Hi Mikaela Prydz,

I appreciate that this is frustrating and it is still in our backlog. If/when this is being worked on the team will update you here.

Thank you.
