I can no longer create a Custom Module in my theme. AutoTheme just doesn't
recognise the template I'm asking it to.
Here's a page created using Custom Module a while ago which works fine:
http://www.outtherenews.com/index.php?module=ContentExpress
&func=display&ceid=5
Here's the page I'm trying to create now:
http://www.outtherenews.com/index.php?module=ContentExpress
&func=display&ceid=16
The Custom Module settings on this are in fact identical. But it doesn't
work.
In the meantime, my host moved my site to a different physical server. I've
uploaded backup versions of the entire modules/AutoTheme folder and the
modules/Blocks folder. I've CHMOD'd all the files and folders to 777 that
are listed in the installation instructions.
Any clue what might be going wrong? Have to admit I am still running AT1.7
on Pn 0.750 with security patch because it's a complex site with several
3rd party modules and I haven't been able to make the upgrades work on my
testbed.

The details of the custom module are being correctly written to
themes/{mytheme}/theme.cfg. But AT won't respond to the instruction to use
a particular template, and just returns the plain Content Express page
which is the subject of the custom module.

I've discovered it's not just the Custom Module function; AT won't render
any changes to any templates. Maybe something very simple wrong here?

Do you have Caching enabled?

I think caching is on because there are recent entries in the _cache
directory.
But on my AT admin page I don't see the caching options which ought to be
there.

If you don't see the caching option in admin then 1 of 2 things: 1. you
have an older AutoTheme or AT-Lite (maybe you have a mix of files). Try
installing the new AT 1.77.
Thanks!

Thanks Shawn, should have said long ago that upgrading to 1.77 solved the
custom module problem.
However, since I upgraded, there seems some incompatibility with the Pn
News module. When I try to edit an article, I get a blank page with the
error message:
Fatal error :
module = AddStory
op = EditStory
Any idea what could be happening?

So you have an older version of PN < .76x. Open
modules/AutoTheme/includes/postnuke/atCommands.php and change AddStory to
NS-AddStory

Perfect, Shawn, many thanks.
I've had to stick with Pn 0.75 because I use ContentExpress, which as far
as I can work out is incompatible with 0.76.

Now that I've upgraded to AT 1.77, I have one baffling problem: if I set
the home page of my site to be anything other than the News module, the
*/user.php page ceases to work. It just comes up blank.
Any suggestions on what might be going wrong?

I realised it's another case of needing to change module names in
atCommands.php. Works fine now!

That seemed to crack the problem but now I've lost it again. */user.php
returns a blank page unless the home page is set to the News module - even
though I've changed User to NS-User and NewUser to NS-NewUser in
postnuke/atCommands.php.
Any suggestions on what I might be doing wrong?

It definitely seems to be an AT issue. user.php works fine when the theme
is set to ExtraLite but returns a blank page using any AT theme.
