Thanks for your reply, you were right. Once freemarker has control
it's unaware of the parent theme. Pretty much all controls have
<#include "/${parameters.templateDir}/${parameters.theme}/controlheader.ftl"
/> in their template. Once I added my own controlheader.ftl it
worked. My other problem was that I had templates in my application
root instead of /WEB-INF/classes/. Once I added it there I saw
freemarker errors, telling me it was the theme variable issue.
Thanks,
Nick
