some wps don't work for me. why?

[grawp]

some wps don't work for me. why? f.e Dockpod remix or coolblue..
instead of any selected wps it shows me always the same very single wps. Only unicatcher or rockboxed (and maybe other default wps) works.
i have ipod 5.5G and  last rockbox build (latest of 27.4.2007 builds). Icons, backdrops, themes, that all work, only WPSs don't work.

PLEASE help

1. Please remove the obscenity from your post

2. WPS's now don't load (and switch to default) if they are in any way 'broken'. I suspect that those ones have not been updated to be compliant with the latest spec. I suggest you contact the author or fix them yourself...

How are you supposed to know there broken? Study the wps code and see whats not correct according to the wps code on the wiki page?

I have the same problem when using a daily build dated 22-04-2007 or later on an Ipod 5G. I modified the Ipod and Ipod_real themes to  include additional information in the WPS for use with classical music (i.e. Composer...). Ipod works but Ipod_real and my theme revert to the default WPS. I would appreciate instructions on how to have Rockbox use my WPS, which was fine until 21-04-2007 and not the default. Help, please!

Check the real time clock tags.  (Tags for date and time.)  This can be the culprit many times, because the tags have changed.

Why don't we just move *all* themes off the main wiki page and start anew, with a disclaimer that you must agree that your theme is in the public domain?

Of course, there would be a big, clear link to the "handyman's friend" WPSs on the other page.
