Fallback for dashboard widgets in custom manager theme

[halftrainedharry]

What does it do?

Loads the dashboard widget templates from the default theme, if they don't exist in the custom manager theme.

Why is it needed?

The documentation states that "The Manager will fall back to the default theme templates for any that have not been overridden."
This is currently not the case for the dashboard widgets (that load a Smarty template).

How to test

• Create a new folder in manager/templates for a custom manager theme and change the system setting manager_theme.
• DON'T create copies of the files in manager/templates/default/dashboard in your own custom theme folder.
• Make sure the dashboard widgets get displayed on the manager welcome page.

For me it’s ok.
The problem of the logo in the manager remains.
In header.tpl, on line 98 (<imgsrc="{$_config.manager_url}templates/{$_config.manager_theme}/images/modx-icon-color.svg" title="{$_config.site_name|strip_tags|escape}"> ) it would be enough to check if it exists or put the default one, or something similar.
I have no problems login.tpl in even though youy mentioned some
