Was that the issue with the door plug or something else? I did not read that?
The door plug on was something different altogether if you are referring to the "Alaska" flight 1282 Boeing Aircraft 737 N704AL.

The door panel on an Alaska Airlines Boeing 737 that fell off midair had no bolts installed on the door plug, according to preliminary findings released Tuesday by the National Transportation Safety Board

Just some tongue in cheek humor there. In my neck of the woods, it's hard to find someone in the industrial trades who hasn't worked for Boeing at some point. And it is an easy mistake to make when digging through the bolt bin.
