While investigating the previous issue, I came upon this c= ode:

;;;###autoload
(defun org-store-agen= da-views (&rest parameters)
=C2=A0 "Store agenda views.&= quot;
=C2=A0 (interactive)
=C2=A0 (eval (list 'org-batch-store= -agenda-views)))

I guess there is some advan= tage over the following, simpler version?

;;;###autoload
(defun org-store-agenda-views (&rest parameters)
=C2=A0 = "Store agenda views."
=C2=A0 (interactive)
= =C2=A0 (org-batch-store-agenda-views))

If so, what is it?

Thanks in advance for furthering my education,

Hello,

[This behavior a= ppears in a previous and the following org versions: Org-mode version 8.2.6= (8.2.6-14-g063c8b-elpa @ /home/kosta/.emacs.d/elpa/org-20140505/)]

I recently began seeing weird behavior when trying to run `o= rg-mobile-push' in an agenda buffer; It appears the files are indeed pu= shed, but at the end I get an error: "(wrong-type-argument arrayp nil)= "

This only happens when I attempt to push from an agenda= buffer - if I push in a regular org buffer, everything works.
The stack trace is:
org-agenda-filter-apply(nil cate= gory)
org-agenda-redo()
org-mobile-push()

where the `org-agenda-filter-apply' call is from this sexp in `org-age= nda-redo':
(and (or cat-filter cat-preset) (org-agenda-filter= -apply cat-filter 'category))

And cat-filter, cat-preset are set in a let* form highe= r up in org-agenda-redo as (their values are included):

(cat-filter org-agenda-category-filter)
nil
(cat-preset (get 'org-agenda-category-filter :preset-filter))
("+Academic")

When I start emacs or= even look at the agenda,
(get 'org-agenda-category-filter :p= reset-filter) always evaluates to nil (up to the point where I eval `org-mo= bile-push'). It gets set in `org-mobile-create-sumo-agenda', which = is called at some point from `org-mobile-push' before `org-agenda-redo&= #39;.

Apparently this started happening after I added the fol= lowing custom agenda command:

("z" "= ;All academic agenda items" alltodo ""
=C2=A0((org= -agenda-overriding-header "Academic todos.")
=C2=A0 (org-agenda-category-filter-preset
=C2=A0 =C2=A0(quot= e
("+Academic&q= uot;)))
(org-agenda-todo-list-sublevels nil)))

Now, I have two questions/comments:
1. It appears that `org-agenda-filter-apply' expects an array, and= an array always evaluates to togical t (As far as I remember, have just ch= ecked). If this is the case, in the following sexp (from `org-agenda-filter= -apply'): (and (or cat-filter cat-preset) (org-agenda-filter-apply cat-= filter 'category)) why is the (or cat-filter cat-preset)? It seems that= either `cat-filter' is an array, in which case it is (possibly) valid = to pass it to `org-agenda-filter-apply', or is nil, in which case it is= n't. What role does cat-preset play here?
2. It appears to me that `org-mobile-create-sumo-agenda' does not = work entirely correctly, as it leaves some properties set that were not set= before it ran?

Ok, so after writing the last two = questions, I looked into `org-agenda-filter-apply', and it appears that= it expects a list of strings of the form "+cat" or "-cat&qu= ot;, which is what `cat-preset' holds at this point.

Changing
(and (or cat-filter cat-preset) (org= -agenda-filter-apply cat-filter 'category))
to
(and= (or cat-filter cat-preset) (org-agenda-filter-apply (or cat-filter cat-pre= set) 'category))
as a check and reevaling the defun makes org-mobile-push complete with= no errors even when ran from an agenda buffer. Note however:
1. = There are several more similar lines in org-agenda-redo, which I suspect al= so need to be checked.
2. After org-mobile-push, a category filter is applied to the agenda b= uffer ("+Academic"), despite the original agenda buffer having no= such filter, so it seems that something is broken in `org-mobile-create-su= mo-agenda' regardless.

I found a (somewhat) relevant post here: http://th= read.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/57481
If what I wrote make= s sense, let me know and I will submit a patch for `org-agenda-filter-apply= ', and if I figure out how to fix `org-mobile-create-sumo-agenda', = for that as well.

Thanks,
Kosta
