I appreciate your help. I created a new theme with CTC 2.5.5, and this is what the readme.txt says.

COMMUNITY Theme Creator - Versione 2.5.5
Tema: TEST
Proporzioni: 4:3
Creato da: Dedaloso
BigBox Version: 13 o later

The error is still there.

I'm wondering: how can it talk about BB 13 or newer when CTC 2.5.5 is much older?

It should make themes for my LB 11.4, right?... I'm lost

You need launchbox 13 or later installed for the theme to work

Okay, but I need my theme to work on LB 10.14 or 12.0 at the latest, since the PC running LB can't handle anything newer

Download a very old version of CTC, you will lose features obviously but that is my recommendation if you cannot upgrade launchbox

Do you know where I can find it? I've searched everywhere, but there seems to be no archive available.

@y2guru Is there a link on Patreon somewhere to get support? I don't know anything about Patreon and can't find anything there. Or is there something somewhere else? Thx

@y2guru Shouldn't there be a "No Value" option in this (in game wheels)

Wheel item templates do not allow the use of convertors, so you are unable to use >, <, contains and *NoValue

@y2guru I ran into an issue with the 3.2.6 update. I thought I would pass it along for you to do with it as you wish.

I have been working on a theme in 3.2.5 with a huge amount of conditioning in it, One of which was with the wheel item templates using a condition to display one of two images for the games media (disc, cartridge, etc.). They would both be collapsed to begin with, the first would become visible if no fanart image was found. The second would become visible if a fanart image IS found. All works fine in v3.2.5. However it will only work in v3.2.6 if I reverse these conditions making both images visible and collapsing them with the conditions.

This works in v3.2.5 but doesn't in v3.2.6

It displays correct here in v3.2.6

but this is how it turns out in v3.2.6

If I change it to this:

3.2_6d.thumb.png.4204acca5e920b342f1bc2d4225cc9a6.png

it sorta works in v3.2.6 displaying both images
