I have this jade template that started causing the following TypeError. 

TypeError: /home/jared/code/fiestah-admin/views/items.jade:11
    9|         a(href=urlFor('item details', {
    10|           params: {

    12|           }
    13|         })) #{item.name}
    14|         .planner By

It complains about a property _id, but I don't think it is actually pertaining to item._id. If I comment the line out, or add another parameter before id, the line number changes, but the exception remains the same. I've even removed both references to _id in the template, and the exception is the same.

Here is the template:

.page-header
  h1 Items

mixin list(items)
  hr
  ul.index
    - each item in items
      li
        a(href=urlFor('item details', {
          params: {
            id: item._id
          }
        })) #{item.name}
        .planner By
          | 
          a(href=urlFor('user details', {
            params: {
              id: item.planner._id
            }
          })) #{item.planner.name.full}

.row
  .span4
    h1 Open Items (#{openItems.length})
    mixin list(openItems)
.row
  .span4
    h1 Open Items - No Offers (#{emptyItems.length})
    mixin list(emptyItems)
.row
  .span4
    h1 Past Items (#{pastItems.length})
    mixin list(pastItems)

I've checked what is being passed in the three "items" arrays, and they are all either empty or contain valid objects with _id fields. There are no null members of the arrays.

Within the inline code, do this:

.row
  .span4
    h1 Open Items (#{openItems.length})
      +dolist(openItems)

rather than this:

.row
  .span4
    h1 Open Items (#{openItems.length})
      mixin dolist(openItems)
