Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted February 16Feb 16 Is it possible in v5 to revert to the default and unmodified template files in Pages?
February 17Feb 17 I'm also interested. As all the templates from v4 are not compatible with v5, I'd like to start from scratch and remove all old templates to start over.
February 17Feb 17 I finally found a workaround. Try creating a new template for Display and copy its content to the old template bits. Then remove the new template.

Currently getting the following error when clicking on any article: Quote [[Template core/front/global/widgetArea is throwing an error. This theme may be out of date. Run the support tool in the AdminCP to restore the default theme.]]

I deleted all of the old themes and set the IPS theme as default. My issue relates to me using a custom display template group:What I really need to do is dele my existing homepage and change to widgets rather than my homepage showing the latest database articles, it's less customiseable or is this the correct way?

February 17Feb 17 No, that's not for the category view. If your issue is when clicking on an article itself, then you need to look at the "Display" group (in your case, it's called Axenarticle Featured). The Display template doesn't use the new layouts.

February 17Feb 17 Yes, but your Display template is likely not the default. You'd need to create a new template set and use that one instead.We do intend to fix this but that solution isn't ready just yet.

Is that just creating a new theme and set it as default?
February 17Feb 17 Sorry, I'm answering too many topics and I confused this one with a different one 😂At the bottom of your Pages Templates screen (the same place where you have the screenshots above), choose Add -> Add Database Template. The Template Type should be Record and you can just assign it to your database right from that form.
