          Either precreate $CFG->themedesignermode=0 in install (tidy),
          or use !isset($CFG->themedesignermode) wrapper in /theme/index.php (less tidy)

          Description

          A bug appears only if you have debug switched on, namely that the themedesignermode object is not pre-created in the install of Moodle 2.0(.3)
          If debug mode is on, then repeated attempts at finding themedesignermode in /theme/index.php at line 98 (one per theme) result in copious errors.

              Hi guys,

              I've fixed this by changing the check to empty($CFG...) instead of !$CFG.
              I've put this up for integration now but if you could please check that would be great.

              Cheers
              Sam

              Uhm, this is strange, I've just installed 2.0.x current from scratch and I got the config record in DB, so I didn't get any notice at all:

              205 | themedesignermode | 0

              In any case, I deleted that record and then got a bunch of "PHP Notice: Undefined property..." notices, so I thin it is better to have this change applied.

              Passing tests.

              As commented above, I was not able to reproduce the problem as far as installation generated the config setting with value = 0.

              Anyway, I've forced it (by deleting the config record) and once the fix was applied, notices went out. I think that's enough.

              Ciao
