source document [%s] not found

Error message

source document [%s] not found

What it means

ReorderDocs source guard: one of the source block-tree entries is missing or not a sortable document. A source ID that was deleted, is not a document, or is otherwise unsortable aborts the whole reorder batch.

Solutions

1. Refresh the doc tree so source IDs still exist
