Bug: TWiki.org Support Form Broken

The Support form is currently broken on TWiki.org.

Test case

• Try to submit a new question
• A blank page shows up in edit mode.

No changes have been done to the form, it looks like a newly introduced bug in the latest TWikiBetaRelease which is currently running on TWiki.org.

Follow up

OK, I could restore the functionality. The form on Support.AskedQuestions was pointing to a non existing NewBugTemplate template topic. I fixed that to the correct Support.WebTopicEditTemplate topic.

With the previous TWiki versions it was falling back to the default Support.WebTopicEditTemplate in case the indicated template topic does not exist.

The latest Beta does not do that anymore, it just shows a blank topic.

This needs to be fixed.
