New Template lost sidebar- reset not working

I have been playing with the design of my site and had a functioning custom template that I didn't like the look of. I copied those template files, renamed them, made what I thought were some very simple cosmetic changes, and switched templates.

I reset all the sidebox settings in the layout boxes controller, and I thought I had adjusted all the other variable settings to match my other template, but no matter what I try I cannot get the categories or customer greeting to show up. Obviously I have changed something I wasn't aware of. Does anyone have an idea of what it could be?

Re: New Template lost sidebar- reset not working

I know that this will sound a little odd given the stunningly impactful nature of your graphics, but what you actually have here is "blank page" problem.

There's a FAQ here to help with these, which points to a mod that can help identify the specific location and nature of the problem.

Well, gosh don't I feel silly. I saw that thread earlier and didn't try it. I'll give it a whirl and let you know what I messed up.

Re: New Template lost sidebar- reset not working

Here is my error mesage...

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: cat_filter() in /homepages/29/d151812943/htdocs/includes/templates/steampunk/sideboxes/tpl_categories.php on line 85

Looks like an incomplete ftp transfer. I recopied the file from elsewhere and everything is ducky again!:clap:

Thanks a million!
