That means that you're missing a userag, add_item is not a usertag that
comes with interchange so it is probably a customized usertag that your
predecessor wrote.

That explains it, they probably didn't copy over the add_item usertag
during/after the upgrade.  Find the usertag in your old (pre-upgrade)
code and copy it over.  I can help you with this if you want to pop into
irc (irc.icdevgroup.org #interchange), it shouldn't be too difficult as
long as you still have access to the old codebase (backup or something).
