I get the error below on several views. Which seems identical to what is described here in this other kss_generic_macros post. An answer is supplied, which is “This was caused by the 2.5->3.0 migration process failing to add the plone_kss layer to a handful of our custom skins. When I went in and added plone_kss by hand to those skins, it fixed this.“

This is only so helpful. A code sample or a real pointer as to where you add plone_kss would make this much easier to solve.

    Log into the ZMI then go to the portal_skins tool. Now click on the “properties” tab. The “Plone Default” skin should look something like this:

    custom
cmfeditions_views
CMFEditions
ChangeSet
kupu_plone
kupu
kupu_tests
archetypes
archetypes_kss
mimetypes_icons
plone_kss
ATContentTypes
ATReferenceBrowserWidget
ResourceRegistries
PasswordReset
gruf
plone_ecmascript
plone_wysiwyg
plone_prefs
plone_portlets
plone_templates
plone_styles
plone_form_scripts
plone_scripts
plone_forms
plone_images
plone_content
plone_login
plone_deprecated
plone_3rdParty
cmf_legacy

    If you are missing any of those you’ll need to add them in. That should solve the issue.
