I had a similar problem. Have a look at: 
https://www.reddit.com/r/emacs/comments/5b3mtr/orgmode_capture_template_issue_after_updating_to/

I fixed my problem by:

("c"
    "New blog post (cycling.ianbarton.net)"
    plain
    (file (lambda() (capture-pelican-draft-file  
"~/Documents/emacs/web_sites/cycling.ianbarton.net/org/_posts")))
    "#+AUTHOR: Ian Barton\n#+DATE: %u\n#+PROPERTY: MODIFIED: 
\n#+TITLE\n#+CATEGORY: Blog \n#+PROPERTY: TAGS \n#+PROPERTY: SUMMARY 
\n")

capture-pelican-draft-file is a function that gets the file name.

So

           entry   (file+headline (lambda() buffer-file-name)) "CHANGES 
Log")
           "* %^{Header of CHANGES item}\nLOGGED: %T \n- link     :: %a
  \n- author   :: Rainer M Krug, email: Rainer@krugs.de\n %?")

may fix your problem (not tested).

Ian.
