I would like to use something like this. However, using a recent git

(format-time-string "%B")
(format-time-string "%Y"))))
I get the following error:

I also get the same error from John Hendy's template. Is this a bug in
recent versions of org, or is there an error in the template lisp? I
have tried doing a git bisect, but can only go back a few commits, as
my config now includes several things that have only recently been
added to org.
You are missing the backquote:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
`("u"
"Test"
entry
(file+headline "~/test.org"
,(format "%s %s"
(format-time-string "%B")
(format-time-string "%Y"))))

Thanks Nick. Hwever with the following minimal template, from the OP, I
still get the error:
;; org-capture settings.
(setq org-capture-templates
`(("t" "test" entry
(file+headline "~/file.org"
,(format "%s"
(format-time-string "%m")))
,(format "** %s \n*** %s-%s \n**** [%s-%s-%s %s %s:%s] "
(format-time-string "%d")
(format-time-string "%Y")
(format-time-string "%A")
(format-time-string "%Y")
(format-time-string "%m")
(format-time-string "%d")
(format-time-string "%a")
(format-time-string "%H")
(format-time-string "%M"))
)))
Odd. I just copied and pasted this into my .emacs and commented out my
actual capture templates section entirely, leaving only this and it
works as expected.
(Just saw Nick's response as well and was going to both try and
suggest similar with a minimal .emacs).
