Greetings,

Where are you getting this Template Changer 1.2.7x?

When I go to the LO home page and then the extensions page, all I see is
still the 1.2.6 version for LO 3.3 dated 2013 and a warning that it has
not been updated for over a year!  As far as I know, this 1.2.6
extension is not compatible with LO 4.x or 5.x.

I quote from an email by Wiebe van der Worp of 7 April 2016 :


"... you need to use this link for a working Template Changer:
http://bugs.documentfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=103039";

That is where I got my version 1.2.7 from

HTH

Wiebe & Philip,

Thanks for the response. I downloaded both the 1.2.7b and 1.2.7c versions. I will make a Slackware package of it to install on my system with LO 5.0.6.3 and try it out.

I normally use the load styles option, but now and then, when I open a document, I get a popup saying the template has changed and it allows me to cancel or update the document template. If I chose cancel, it sets a bit in the document to never allow this popup again for this document. The Template Changer was the only option to restore this popup option. I made the mistake years ago, thinking "Cancel" was the safe option and not knowing the consequences, to choose Cancel for some documents. I no longer know which ones, since I didn't keep records of what I had opted for each document. And so, I could still run into documents that have no way to restore this update feature or update the template without the Template Changer.

This is a strange and unintuitive place to find a working extension. Any plans to put it in the usual place for extensions under the LO home page to make it easier for users to find?

Thanks again.
Girvin Herr
