Invalid get index 'Styles' (on base: 'Nil'), don't know how to solve

[zxcdevlop]

this happened when i wanted to test out my dialogic game using "play timeline"; the game didn't run and it gave out this
it also seems to say it's coming from line 9 but I don't know what to fix there

i did some googling and i found out that "invalid get index 'styles'" means I incorrectly called something
the (on base: 'nil') means it can't find the data

here's the code from the script:

extends Control

func _ready() -> void:
	print("[Dialogic] Testing scene was started.")
	if !ProjectSettings.get_setting('internationalization/locale/test', "").is_empty():
		print("Testing locale is: ", ProjectSettings.get_setting('internationalization/locale/test'))
	$PauseIndictator.hide()

	var scene: Node = DialogicUtil.autoload().Styles.load_style(DialogicUtil.get_editor_setting('current_test_style', ''))
	if not scene is CanvasLayer:
		if scene is Control:
			scene.position = get_viewport_rect().size/2.0
		if scene is Node2D:
			scene.position = get_viewport_rect().size/2.0

	randomize()
	var current_timeline: String = DialogicUtil.get_editor_setting('current_timeline_path', null)
	if !current_timeline:
		get_tree().quit()
	DialogicUtil.autoload().start(current_timeline)
	DialogicUtil.autoload().timeline_ended.connect(get_tree().quit)
	DialogicUtil.autoload().signal_event.connect(recieve_event_signal)
	DialogicUtil.autoload().text_signal.connect(recieve_text_signal)

func recieve_event_signal(argument:String) -> void:
	print("[Dialogic] Encountered a signal event: ", argument)

func recieve_text_signal(argument:String) -> void:
	print("[Dialogic] Encountered a signal in text: ", argument)

func _input(event:InputEvent) -> void:
	if event is InputEventKey and event.pressed and event.keycode == KEY_ESCAPE:
		DialogicUtil.autoload().paused = !DialogicUtil.autoload().paused
		$PauseIndictator.visible = DialogicUtil.autoload().paused`


	if (event is InputEventMouseButton
	and event.is_pressed()
	and event.button_index == MOUSE_BUTTON_MIDDLE):
		var auto_skip: DialogicAutoSkip = DialogicUtil.autoload().Inputs.auto_skip
		var is_auto_skip_enabled := auto_skip.enabled

		auto_skip.disable_on_unread_text = false
		auto_skip.enabled = !is_auto_skip_enabled

anyone know how to fix? I'm new to dialogic and godot

I believe this is an issue with the test scene script. I'm also new to Dialogic, so I don't know how I would go about fixing it, but I'm providing some more detailed info on how to reproduce the issue.

Steps to reproduce:
New Godot Project -> Add Dialogic Addon as per https://docs.dialogic.pro/getting-started.html#1-installation--activation -> Enter Styles Tab -> Add new premade style -> Add Speaker Textbox Style (happens on any of them) -> Click the "test style" button in the upper right hand corner -> Script breaks on line 17 of the test style scene

Specific error:

E 0:00:02:0127   DialogicUtil.gd:150 @ get_editor_setting(): Couldn't find the given section "DES" and key "current_timeline_path", and no default was given.
  <C++ Error>    Condition "p_default.get_type() == Variant::NIL" is true. Returning: Variant()

  <Stack Trace>  DialogicUtil.gd:150 @ get_editor_setting()

Godot Version: 4.2.1.stable
Dialogic Version: 2.0 (From the release page)

Hey, I had this same exact issue and i fixed it by reinstalling the plugin in a new empty project. I made the project and closed godot before moving the addon folder into it then i enabled the plugin and it all worked.
