I'm trying to create a new skin and need to customize the WebCreateNewTopic template. I understand that the built-in PatternSkin has a filed called PatternSkinWebCreateNewTopicTemplate.txt which will be called and then the file WebCreateNewTopicTemplate.txt gets called.

When I provide a new file for my own skin. Let's say the file is named with MySkinWebCreateNewTopicTemplate.txt. However this file is never get called. Instead only the default WebCreateNewTopicTemplate.txt got called. Have been digging through the source code trying to find out why, but now successful. Need some help

Another thing, I cannot find any where the default WebCreateNewTopicTemplate.txt file is get called in PatternSkinWebCreateNewTopicTemplate.txt. How the PatternSkin loads the default file?

Many thanks!
