Question

I have installed TigerSkin on the TWiki beta from 7 May 2004. I have changed the edit.tiger.tmpl in order to get the preview button instead of save changes by copying the corresponding line from edit.tmpl. I have applied the patch for the RefreshEditPage problem as well. The resulting template files are attached.

Now when I create a new topic by following a "?" link and preview my changes, at the top of the page the name of the parent topic is shown. However when I save the changes this is gone. I can switch to the default skin and set the parent for the topic manually. This is then displayed correctly with TigerSkin. Further edits of the same topic using TigerSkin leave the parent intact.

The parent is set correctly when I create the topic using the default skin.

Debugging so far has revealed that the %TOPICPARENT% variable is set in the edit page, no matter which skin I use. However it is empty when I preview the page using TigerSkin. It is set when previewing with the default skin. I just can't find the reason why this is the case. Does anyone have an idea where to look next?

Environment

• testenvoutput.htm: output from testenv

• edit.tiger.tmpl.txt: changed edit template for TigerSkin

• TWiki.cfg: TWiki.cfg config file

Answer

<input type="hidden" name="parent" value="%TOPICPARENT%" />

This must be changed to:

<input type="hidden" name="topicparent" value="%TOPICPARENT%" />
