this is my interpretation of how views and contemplate work together. I was under the impression that you customize the "teaser" for a contemplate type. you can then display the custom teaser in views on a line when you select node->teaser

well, I am able to select teaser, but it is completely blank when I display it. I have tried it in the default view, and a page view. can someone give me a hint please

When you select teaser in Views, you get what is stored in the database in the teaser field. When you use contemplate, it creates a teaser when the node is viewed. If you want the contemplate teaser, you must use the 'node' row style, which will show the actually built teaser.

After doing this I get the following error

Fatal error: Cannot access empty property in /modules/views/modules/node.views.inc on line 784

Ive already commented in that issue as well. Id rather not hack the module and change code since future updates will just screw it up again.
