The comma got eaten by the quotes   This part     username   visitorName     Should be this     username   visitorName       Aside  For pasting code into the console  you can paste them in one line at a time to help you pinpoint where things went wrong  -

I got this error Unexpected identifier because of a missing semi-colon   at the end of a line  Anyone wandering here for other than above-mentioned solutions  This might also be the cause of this error

copy this line and replace in your project  var myNewString   myOldString replace   username   visitorName     there is a simple problem with coma
