Template errors c++

Question

I am having some trouble with templates. for some reason my template itself seems to be fine but when I try to use it for some reason it errors out even though as far as I know I am using it correctly. The template is for a simple linked list that is meant to hold a child Shape classes and a CustomShape class. This code is for school so if you could only comment on the errors related to the template that would be great. I have read other posts on this subject but none seem to help/solve whatever my issue is.
