Question

After upgrading to the Pattern Skin, when you edit a page (in any Web), and then Click Preview, it automatically Saves the Page.. Has anyone seen this happen before?

Answer

The PatternSkin is specific for the latest production TWikiRelease02Sep2004 that supports a direct save. Upgrade your TWiki.

Alternatively you can try to fix the Pattern skin to work with the older TWiki version. Modify edit.pattern.tmpl: and:

• replace action="%SCRIPTURLPATH%/save%SCRIPTSUFFIX%/%WEB%/%TOPIC%" with action="%SCRIPTURLPATH%/preview%SCRIPTSUFFIX%/%WEB%/%TOPIC%".
• remove the input types of names "checkpoint", "quietsave" and "save"

This is untested but should give you enough directions.

I found a similar issue (Preview does not work) when using the GermanTanslationForCairo. Basically the problem there (template line 104) is that the value of the button must be Preview rather than any German translation.
