Story edits not saved—no story ID field

I've installed 1.3.10rc1 and I'm having the following annoying problem: only the single theme that ships by default works. My theme is developed from the WebBadAss White core. I had to add the template files archivestorybodytext.thtml and archivestorytext.thtml in order to get it to work, presumably because of the new story archiving features. When editing a story, however, changes can't be saved and the following error is displayed: "The ID you chose for this story is already in use. Please use another ID." The form is missing the Story ID field. Anyone have an idea of how I can rectify this?

The new templates have a field to edit the story ID. you will have to adapt your theme to have this field.

in layout/admin/story/storeditor.thtml

best might be to copy the complete admin templates to the old layout.

Updates to Geeklog usually include updates to the theme files as well. There is documentation shipped with each version of Geeklog specifying the theme changes from the previous version.

I'd recommend taking a look at it and updating all your theme files appropriately.
