Happy it works, if you find the offending element of your persona configuration you could remove it and continue to use your personal config for batch publishing. > > So weird emacs did not give any error before that something is not > quite right.

By separating your personal customization from the project init file used for publishing it becomes possible to distribute your project with the publication init file without sharing your personal configuration.
