SID-01114: WEBHEADERART appearing only in webpreferences topic

Hello everyone. I am new to TWiki and have a difficulty setting my own webheaderart. I browsed for similar issue but didn't find anything helpfull. In the web i want to set the header, i have inserted the following in the web's preferences topic:" * Set WEBHEADERART = %PUBURLPATH%/%WEB%/%TOPIC%/ACCOUNTINGheader.gif" and i have attached the ACCOUNTINGheader.gif. The result is that the header is displayed normally in the web's preferences topic but only there!! There is something wrong i am doing. Maybe has to do with the TOPIC variable.

Thanks for your understanding

Discussion and Answer

TWiki evaluates variables in settings with the scope of the current topic, not where the setting is defined in. Therefore, in the WEBHEADERART setting, replace %WEB% with name of web, and %TOPIC% with WebPreferences.
