PARSER: Applying Intentions failed 'unicode' object has no attribute 'get'

Though this has been discussed on Splunk Answers, the prevailing solution has not worked for me.

As per the discussions on Splunk Answers, I've switched the "intention" and "replacementMap" params in my xml, but as soon as I populate the search field, the error is thrown. If I leave it blank, it uses the default value from the xml, but that's as much luck as I can wrangle.

Below is the EFS section modified as per prevailing recommendations:

<module name="ExtendedFieldSearch"
layoutPanel="viewHeader">
     <param name="intention">
     <param name="name">stringreplace</param>
     <param name="arg">
    <param name="sourcetypeToken">
       <param name="default">*</param>
       <param name="fillOnEmpty">True</param>
     </param>
   </param>
 </param>   <param name="replacementMap">
   <param name="arg">
     <param name="sourcetypeToken"/>
   </param>
 </param>
 <param name="field">sourcetype</param>
 <param name="q">splunkd</param>

...

You are right that the "accepted" answer here is wrong. However, the other upvoted answer by dmlee is correct.

Swapping the sections I would not expect to have any effect. However, your replacmentMap arg needs a value:

<module name="ExtendedFieldSearch" layoutPanel="viewHeader">
  <param name="intention">
    <param name="name">stringreplace</param>
    <param name="arg">
      <param name="sourcetypeToken">
        <param name="default">*</param>
        <param name="fillOnEmpty">True</param>
      </param>
    </param>
  </param>   
  <param name="replacementMap">
    <param name="arg">
      <param name="sourcetypeToken">
        <param name="value"></param>
      </param>
    </param>
  </param>
  <param name="field">sourcetype</param>
  <param name="q">splunkd</param>
