Adding current issues to the home page - strange error

Okay, there is some work to do to get the carousel going.
First, you need to get the Owl carousel:
https://owlcarousel2.github.io/OwlCarousel2/

I have added a folder ‘owlcarousel’ in themes > default >
Here I have put the files:
owl.theme.default.css
owl.carousel.min.js
owl.carousel.css

The issue_carousel.tpl resides in template > frontend > objects

Here is the content:

{assign var=issueTitle value=$carouselissue->getLocalizedTitle()}
{assign var=issueSeries value=$carouselissue->getIssueSeries()}
{assign var=issueCover value=$carouselissue->getLocalizedCoverImageUrl()}

<div class="obj_carousel_summary">
	<div class="issue-metadata">
		<div class="issue_cover">

	{if $issueCover}
		<a class="cover" href="{url op="view" page="issue" path=$carouselissue->getBestIssueId()}">

	</div>
	
	{* Published date *}
		{if $carouselissue->getDatePublished()}
			<div class="published">

				<span class="value">

			</div>
		{/if}

</div></div>
