Hi Austin,
the way you're injecting the template if perfectly fine.
The error about the embedded element not being able to be found is
related to the ID you're using. If you use a relative ID (like the
one you're using: CategoryEntry), then it will look for that embedded
element according to the element that's actually using the template.
If you start with a dot, you use an absolute ID (for
instance: .Pub.CategoryEntry). Those will always be found.
It could be that by injecting the template in the site structure,
you're applying it one or several elements. Maybe one of those is
located somewhere that causes the relative lookup to fail.
HTH,
Geert
