- Description
Kind of an edge case, but if layout theme names change between versions or due to development work, so there's a mismatch between the stored layout preference and the layouts listed in the files, then a blank screen is the result. The database needs to be edited directly to correct the problem (tiki_preferences site_layout updated to match available layout names).
There should be a fallback to a default layout ("basic") if the preference name isn't found, similar to how the site will fall back to the default theme if the selected theme or stored-preference theme isn't found.
