Cloned blog tries to publish with original blog's templates

Vote 0 Votes

More fun from me!

Cloned my blog, did a template refresh (want to start again, sort things out properly) and whenever I publish the cloned blog, I get an error about a missing template module whilst publishing entry archives. This module is not included in any of the templates on the cloned blog. If I click "Edit Template" then it opens up a template from the original blog!

Have deleted the cloned blog and tried again, but no luck.

Running 4.25. Any ideas?

  • I've managed to duplicate the effect with my own attempt at cloning templates from one blog to another. I got the same error before I had changed the mt_templatemap table to reflect the move.

    However, I am still getting the same error even now. I have traced the template's ID in all mt_template* tables and there are no references left to the old blog ID, yet STILL it is trying to use the old template.

    Is there something buried somewhere that has been forgotten about that is some other link of a template to a blog?

  • Additionally, it only affects the individual entry archive template.

  • And, if I DELETE the entry archive and recreate, it STILL doesn't work. So even tho it has a whole new ID, new archive map etc, MT is still referencing the old blog ID somewhere and trying to use that blog's entry archive template!

If you need to share template code, replace all the "<" signs with "&lt;" or use this utility.
