Before I got this error, I got a message about a user's theme not being available and it asked me to switch to a different one. After switching, this is the error that occurred. It seems to be happening on any page I try to edit and any new page I attempt to create.

This error occurs when the option "Users can choose page themes" in Config site -> site options -> User settings is selected. It's fine when it is not selected.

Bug 1591304: Undefined $view in is_themeable()

Should be $this rather than $view as we are within a view object
