Uhhh...we could not load this forum

Forum URL: (private)

This specific forum just stopped loading for me when I was trying to preview a template change. I currently have the tab with the admin panel still open and loaded and can navigate within the admin panel but cannot load the actual forum either with direct url or through dashboard.

Eton Bones - I've created a new theme: New Clean Default and switched the admin account to that theme. You should be able to log in / access the front end now. If currently logged in, might need a hard refresh. Let me know.

Do you recall the template change you were making? And I assume it was to the Canary theme?

Thank you, Scott , that solved the issue.

It was indeed the Canary theme, and the template change was in shoutbox > individual posts, which I applied to see after the preview attempt failed as seen in the security log.

I switched back to Canary and got the loading error again, but I left the change untouched in that template in case you wish to do some forensic analysis or confirm any theories.

Eton Bones - thanks. Looking at it now.

Eton Bones -

The error gets thrown by the variable $[shoutbox_post.created_by.name] that appears after == "phone"}. It looks like for whatever reason, when entering the foreach for custom fields, the context of the previous object (created_by) is lost.
