Cubic blank page

Cubic blank page

I'm intrigued by the Cubic theme and want to try it out. I have installed the theme and its two companion plug-ins, Institutions and Applications. When I apply the Cubic theme to a course, I get only the green header at the top and the rest of the page is completely blank. Clicking on any of the buttons in the header does nothing. I've turned on Debugging to Developer mode and get no errors.

 

Seems like a Javascript issue, but I'm not sure where to look. Does anyone have any ideas? I'm using Moodle 2.5.1.

On the browser, press F12 and look at the 'console' for errors.

I got nuthin'. You can see in the screenshot that my cursor is clicking on the Courses button, which I would expect to show my other courses. Could it be that the theme just doesn't work in 2.5? Would it generate any errors in that case?

CUBIC theme was only made for 2.2 and will work on 2.3, but fails on 2.4 so why are you expecting it to work on 2.5? You should try reading the comments relating to the CUBIC theme.

For some reason I decided to install it on M2.6.2 and found that it works(ish):

Cubic

Poor image quality because of the 100k forum limit.

EDIT: Only works if you are NOT enrolled on any courses.

EDIT2: Message in php.log: PHP Fatal error:  Call to undefined method stdClass::has_view() in F:\moodledev\moodle26\theme\cubic\lib.php on line 528.

Ok, fix appears to be to edit 'lib.php' and change line 528 from:

&& ($activity->visible or $activity->has_view())) {

to

&& ($activity->visible)) {

as $activity is just a stdClass as created by 'get_array_of_activities()' in '/course/lib.php'.  Perhaps in the past it had the method attached to it.
