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
