@samh21 can you share the code for the News component? This error happens if your component is not returning anything.

The new version of contentful source is live at gatsby-source-contentful@4.0.0!

Thanks for the headsup, do you have a link to the relevant changes to this topic?

https://github.com/gatsbyjs/gatsby/blob/master/docs/reference/release-notes/v2.26/index.md#gatsby-source-contentful400

Thank you!

Thanks for great solution. Finally solved fluid image issue after trying every solution out there.
