Options not allowed

[Nate Breg]

Hi Fernando,

Thanks for making this fantastic package! I have installed it both from SSC and then from your website using net install. In both cases, I run into an error if I try to use some options, particularly agg() or wboot. For example, following your tutorial, this runs successfully:

`use https://friosavila.github.io/playingwithstata/drdid/mpdta.dta, clear

csdid lemp lpop , ivar(countyreal) time(year) gvar(first_treat) method(dripw)`

However, when I run the following, I get the error agg not allowed:

csdid lemp lpop , ivar(countyreal) time(year) gvar(first_treat) method(dripw) /// agg(event) saverif(rif_example) wboot replace rseed(1)

Further, if I take out the agg, I get wboot not allowed.

Any idea what might be the problem?

Thanks!
Nate

Hi Nate that is very odd. When i do that on my end, it works without problems. May I suggest try again after updating csdid and drdid with the latest version from SSC? Let me know if the problem persists Fernando

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried deleting the ado files for csdid and drdid and reinstalling from SSC, but still the same errors appear, unfortunately.

So try restart Stata Also type which csdid.ado which drdid.ado They should say version 1.71 or higher

Fixed! I was deleting ado files from the plus folder, but apparently there were a few csdid files hanging out in the personal folder, and that was preventing me from updating csdid, which was at 1.03, *and* prevented me from updating drdid, which was at 1.3 or something. With all the files cleared, I could use net install to update both to 1.71, and I can replicate the full tutorial.  Thank you for your help and your patience!
