Description Rudolf Kollien 2014-10-06 09:47:33 UTC

Hello,

in LO version 4.x files other than "truly" named templates (ott, ots, etc) are not longer shown in the template manager.

Until know, we saved simple "odt" and " ods" files in folders for easy maintenance by admin users. Other users have this folders in the path directive in the LO settings. When they open the files with "New->from template", the "odt" and "ods" files are treated as templates and a new document based on this are created. Now, in 4.x files with extensions other than "ott", "ots" etc are not listed any more.

Is there a possibility to get the old functionality back? 

Best regards,
Rudolf

I see .odt files just fine in the template manager.
I need you to check with a newer version and let me know what happens. Set to unconfirmed, if the problem persists and set as resolved worksforme, if it's gone.
