Perfectly working and correctly factored solution but get error: "The campingList component doesn't have a Quantity field using an inputNumber UI component"
Driving me crazy. Please help! I have a perfectly working sollution, correctly factored according to the challenge. I've compared against other solutions on the message boards and I don't see where the miss is. It matches all the criteria the challenge asks for but I get the very obtuse error message:
"The campingList component doesn't have a Quantity field using an inputNumber UI component" - which is clearly an incorrect statement as the UI components are supposed to be on the campaignListForm component.
Here is my code (not posting the apex controller, camping.cmp, campingHeader.cmp or campingListItem as they haven't changed in this challenge and are all working ok):
(Note: I do have a namespace on my org, perhaps that is the issue? Custom field names are xxx__MyField__c, but this hasn't been a problem before)
addItemEvent.cmp
campingListForm.cmp
camingListFormController.js
campingListController.js
campingListHelper.js ** see note in previous class, this is not called, though it is the correct way to decompose the problem **

That being said, it could be something very nitpicky with the order of attributes in your element. I would try investigating this first. For instance, I copied my component from the code in the module and it worked well enough. Try replacing the Quantity form element (starting with the div class="slds-form-elment") with the following to see if it helps (or at least produces a different error):
If that doesn't work, then you're probably looking at spinning up that new developer org and trying the challenge again, unfortunately.

Just wanted to let you know, that while Namespacing is best practice (especially if you're looking at going ISV) it messes Trailhead's challenge caluclator. I had to move this solution to a non-namespaced org and "bing!!" it worked !
That's what I stated in my response to your problem. I'm just curious why my response wasn't marked as the best answer.
Thanks,

I simply replaced "v.newItem.c4tch__Quantity__c" with "v.newItem.Quantity__c", only in the component.
It complained again about the <namespace>__Packed__c (Price__c was fine though), and I applied the same solution.
This tricked the Trailhead verification.
The challenge was then complete - however, the list will not show the correct values for Quantity and Packed :D.
