Solutions

1. Use a supported value mode for the template field (e.g. fixed value or current time where applicable).
2. Correct the mode string in the template configuration.

Example fix

Set the template field's value mode to a documented mode such as 'fixed' instead of an unknown string.

When it happens

Trigger: Applying a new-item template whose field uses an unrecognized value mode.

Common situations: Occurs when a new-item template field carries an unknown value mode, usually from a newer app version or a hand-edited template.
