That's the default WPS and it means (unless you chose it on purpose) that there's something wrong with the code of the one you're trying to use.  There were some big changes to the WPS syntax earlier this week so many of them aren't working as intended.  You have a few choices:

1)  Fix it yourself by studying the guidelines in the CustomWPS wiki page
2)  Contacting the author and asking them to update it
3)  Using another theme
or
4)  Eating cornflakes
or, and I hate to mention it, but it is a possibility...
5) Revert to an older version and miss out on any new improvements

You can read recent posts in this forum for details on what has changed.

The tags that changed were

%m
%P
%pb

See the CustomWPS wiki page I mentionned before for the new syntax.

P.S. You get extra points if you fix the theme and share it with everyone else so they don't have to.

You only get points if the theme is published with a license that grants you rights to modify and re-use it.  Check to be sure.

---

To make it clearer, publishing a modified version of the theme, if it's not properly licensed, is forbidden.
