I am attempting to run glmulti to test all possible subsets for model selection. The following is the code that I am trying to use.
lmer.glmulti<-function(formula, data, random="", ...){
lmer(paste(deparse(formula),random),data=data,
REML=FALSE,...)
}
glmulti <-
glmulti(formula(lmer(transLOT~DielEnd+TidalHeight+Pier+PercentIllumination+WT+BP+Anglers+(1|Transmitter), data=RESIDENCY_FOR_R), fixed.only=TRUE),
data=RESIDENCY_FOR_R,
level = 1,
method = "h",
crit = "bic",
confsetsize = 5,
plotty = F, report = F,
fitfunc = lmer.glmulti,
random="+(1|Transmitter)",
intercept=TRUE)
A problem arises with the variable combinations. In my output, the 4th and 5th models are the same (see below) and there is a blank in-between "Pier" and "(1|Transmitter)."

If anyone could help that would be greatly appreciated.
