James Holmes commented on WW-1832:
----------------------------------
Agreed Brian. To me the main issue though is the overriding.
> Template directory config (struts.ui.templateDir) causes all templates to
> fail completely

> Key: WW-1832
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/WW-1832
> Project: Struts 2
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Views
> Affects Versions: 2.0.6
> Reporter: Brian Pontarelli
> Priority: Critical
> Fix For: 2.0.10
>
>
> There are a number of issues regarding themes that need to be addressed. All
> of these issues stem from the fact that Struts2 allows a property to move the
> location of the theme overrides from /template to anywhere within the web
> application. Setting it to something like this causes nothing to work at all.
> struts.ui.templateDir=/WEB-INF/template
> The first issue is that overrides no longer work because this directory is
> assumed to be the directory for ALL templates including the base template
> being overridden. All path variables no longer work and the theme no does not
> pick up templates from its parent.
> The second issue is that some variables are no longer being set, such as the
> themeProperties.parent. This is obviously due to the directory problem, but
> effects every template file.
> So, for all intents and purposes, this configuration parameter doesn't work
> at all.
