Not Using Default "Contact" Object to Create Button
Are you creating the custom button under Build > Customize > Contacts > Buttons, Links, and Actions (as seen in the image below)? Many users are creating a new custom object called "Contact" instead of using the default object as the challenge calls for.

When creating the button, are you using the Detail Page Button display type? Using one of the other two options will fail the challenge.

Are you using Page Layouts under Build > Customize > Contacts? You will need to edit the layout titled "Contact Layout".

Seems to be something else going on here - I am getting the same error.

I have determined that the test routine is finding the button (so it's in the right place and is named properly), and using the button works interactvely. Here is the URL: https://google.com/#q={!Contact.Name}

mine worked once I used jon,klingensmith's google code. Like you, everything was where it was supposed to be. I think the trailhead module has provided code that is not written correctly.

Has anyone figured the solution or informed trailhead about thyis issue?? Its still returning same error today even when the button functions properly.

Gbolahan,  I was banging my head against this one as well.   Make sure you are dragging FROM  (in page layout editor) from 'Buttons' and not 'mobile and lightning actions'.  And make sure you are dragging TO 'Custom Buttons'  not 'Actions.

It's a little confusing since the end result looks the same,
