You didn't mention what version you're using, but you can get the latest file here. In the future, you really should make template changes in your own style, rather than modifying the default templates (makes it much easier to "undo" any problems).

Now you know. lol


How are you "editing" the template files? If you are using Tiki's internal template editor, you must take care when editing any file with scripting — the Tiki editor will remove the scripting. This is what is causing your errors.

You may have stripped out the scripting in more than one TPL file (especially if the error occurred on every page — not just when editing a wiki page.

I suggest:

  1. Remove all of your customized template TPL files (or make copies of them locally).
  2. Download the full 1.9.8 archive.
  3. Unzip the ../templates/*.tpl files to your Tiki's ../templatets/*.tpl directory.
    This will (hopefully) restore all the damaged template files. Confirm that your Tiki is operating correctly.
  4. Create a new directory: ../templates/styles/YOURSTYLE/*.tpl in which to place your custom TPL files.
  5. Create a new CSS for your custom style: ../styles/YOURSTYLE.css
  6. Log into your Tiki. On the Admin: Themes page, select YOURSTYLE as the theme.
    See here for details on changing themes.
  7. Add the customized templates files (that you removed in step 1) one-at-a time, testing Tiki after each new file is added.
    When you find errors, you know that the template TPL file is broken.



Do you have a public ally available URL? (It would be much easier for me to find the problem if I could actually see the problem).
