Hi everybody,

since our update to the latest mahara version, we got the dwoo flodding our error log with messages.

Here is an example:

[13-Apr-2010 14:07:39] [WAR] 29 (lib/dwoo/mahara/plugins/function.theme_path.php:16) The dwoo modifier theme_path is deprecated: please use theme_url

Does anyone know what might be causing this problem and how I could fix it?

Hi Alex,

The theme_path function got changed to theme_url in the upgrade to 1.2 (I can't remember why).

There shouldn't be any calls to theme_path in the core Mahara themes.  But if you use a custom theme, you should look for places in your templates that have {theme_path location="..."} and change them to {theme_url filename="..."}

If you don't have time to do that, you could just temporarily remove or comment out the warning (the log_warn line in lib/dwoo/mahara/plugins/function.theme_path.php).

It got changed because the parameter changed for clarity and it seemed like a good time to improve the clarity of the name too  (e.g the old one, theme_path, was that for a url or filesystem path? New one is much clearer)

Thank you guys for your help.

I just copied my custom template into the templates folder. Didn't know that the code had changed there too.
