Question

So... our Company has 1000 webs. I ran across an odd one today and I'm trying to puzzle it out.

Our TWiki is running Dakar.
$Date: 2008/06/03 00:59:20 $ $Rev: 10807 $

Two webs still look like Cairo. They've got the "old" look for the Edit screen (release edit lock checkbox) and WebTopBar is customized on a per-web basis (supposedly no longer possible in TWiki 4)

I figured they must be using their own template, but SKIN is set to pattern as expected and nothing else. No COVER setting. No changes to EDIT_TEMPLATE or VIEW_TEMPLATE.

They have overridden TWIKILAYOUTURL and TWIKISTYLEURL but I don't see how those would allow them to override the templates that include WebTopBar.

It's a puzzle I would much like to solve. Can anyone provide clues for where I look next?

Environment

Answer

ALERT! If you answer a question - or have a question you asked answered by someone - please remember to edit the page and set the status to answered. The status is in a drop-down list below the edit box.

Apparently these webs are using

   templates/Fooweb/*.tmpl
which is apparently deprecated ("don't count on it") in future versions of twiki.

Why "don't count on it"? What is the better thing that replaces this functionality?
