Adding a template style page in Pages 5

Can anyone help me please?
I have upgraded to Pages 5.0 and not only are there far fewer interesting templates for me to start working from (I am looking particularly in the Newsletters section) but I am also having a problem adding template styled pages to a new project.
Previously I simply clicked on Insert > Pages in the menu and then selected the layout. I can't seem to find how to do this in 5.0 - all I can do is create a blank section.
I'm sure I must be missing something really obvious but I can't figure out what it is!
Regards, Peter
PS is there any way to upgrade to Pages 5.0 but not lose the decent (interesting) templates? I'm a school teacher and the kids love having interesting templates to start with - these new ones are terrible!

The lack of page/section styles was one of the first features I noticed missing in Pages 5.0. This is really disappointing for me as I've created a number of my own document templates and have made extensive use of page/section styles.
On one hand I can understand why Apple may have removed this feature. It is rather an anomaly among its peers. Microsoft Word does not use page/section styles and to some users it could be a bit of a confusing feature in Pages. I know for me it was somewhat confusing at first. I was used to the MS Word way of doing things and I was wondering how these section style templates differed from me just setting my own section style. But then I figured out that it is like a slide template in Keynote. It is simply a template and can be used as a shortcut to setup a new document section in a standard style. Since figuring out how to use the page/section styles, it has been awesome and has been one of the key reasons I like Pages better than Word and why I switched completely from Word to Pages.
For now, I guess I will have to figure out how to work without it which will basically mean that I will have to go back to the old manual method of just copying and pasting section styles. It will take longer to add new sections with identical styles to a document and will be more buggy. It is likely that I will not always get it exactly correctly which will result in consistency issues in my documents. As well, the inability to copy and paste whole pages/sections from the page thumbnails will make this process take even longer and be even more buggy. But ultimately it is doable.
I can only hope that the page/section templates is a feature that Apple will bring back very soon. I wish someone from Apple would at least let us know if this feature will be making its way back in or if it is gone for good. Accordingly, we could move on or plan for its return.

APA Style Template in Pages for Mac?

Does anyone know how to create an APA style Template in Pages for Mac?

Search for a Word APA template to your liking and open that in Pages.
The problem you will encounter with Pages 5.5.1 is that the List styles are fairly broken and require far more work than they should need.
If you have Pages '09, use that instaed.

Adding a page from custom Templates in Pages 5

I know a lot of features have been removed, but this HAS to be my own operator error.
Currently using Pages 5.1 on all of my macs 10.9.2
I build multi page templates in pages. For example: a cover page, a storyboard page, a notes page, looks page and an end page.
I used to save a custom template that consisted of a layout for each page, then, under 'sections' I could add multiples of any page.
I usually need mroe than one storyboard page, multiple notes pages, and could easily do this.
I cannot figure out how to add additional preconfigured pages as I need them.
I know I can no longer duplicate a page (workaround is grouping everythin on a page, copy and paste to a blank page... seriously)
And the only thing I can figure is to make a new template with 40 of each custom page layout, so I have multiple custom
I have to be missing the new method to do this.
thank you in advance.

Gone.
Removed by Apple along with 100 other fetaures.
Pages '09 should still be in your Applications/iWork folder.
Use that instead.
Rate/review Pages 5 in the App Store if you are unhappy.

Pages & AppleScript - adding content and new pages

I build iOS apps for a living and I am taking a stab at making a developer's guide for each app I create (classes and methods used, some terminology, etc.). I'm able to get a list of all my class files and methods of each class from XCode using AppleScript. What I would like to do now is bring them into a Pages document and add some styling to the text. I can get Pages to make a new document from a template but I can't seem to do anything after that - adding a page or text to the template - the template is one page with some styles and a text box placed on page 1. Here's my code for Pages:
tell application "Pages"
   make new document with properties {template name:"DeveloperGuide"}
   tell front document
       set bodyText to body text
       return bodyText
   end tell
end tell
It's been a while since I've used AppleScript and I've never scripted pages so I'm not sure if this is the right approach. It's nice to see that after two years the notoriously ill documented AppleScript dictionaries still exist. Anyway, my return from the code above is "missing value".
Any help would be appreciated.

Are you aware there are two types of templates in Pages? Word processing and pages layout?

Accessing multi-section templates in Pages 5... how?

We have some templates created in Pages 4.3 that have multiple sections defined. (A cover page, various internal Body page styles, and an end page). We constructed our documents in 4.3 using selections from the various sections in the templates (e.g. get a cover with CC text on it, a two column body and a CC end-page, or a cover with commercial copyright, single column body text blank back page etc.).
I can create a new document from the 4.3 template in Pages 5, but I can't work out how to access these various internal sections. Anyone know?

I've just confirmed that the templates features have been removed - if you 'roundtrip' a Pages 09 document into Pages 5 and then save it back to Pages 09, the resulting document has had all the template section related information removed along the way.
This is a serious blow for us - we similarly use multi-purpose templates in Pages 09 (e.g. just one for all the variations of invoice we generate). Initial reports in these fora and elsewhere suggest that there are several other key features that didn't make it through to the latest version of Pages - unclear whether these make the application unusable in our production environment or not.
What is most frustrating is that the new Pages finally has proper RTL support (which we've been wanting for ages)... aaagh!
But at least we were just about to create a new set of templates, so maybe we use this as 'final nail in coffin' and invest this time in another app - I guess NeoOffice is the most likely candidate, as MS Office (on OSX) still does not support RTL in any sensible fashion.

The contents of some yahoo mail e-mails does not display (except using No Style page View, or when doing a Reply), but IE works fine.

For some (but only some) incoming Yahoo e-mails, Firefox does not show the text of the e-mail. I can see the text with the No Style page view. It also appears when I do a Reply. And, FYI, IE (both 8.0.7600.16385 and 8.0.6001.18702) have no problem with the same e-mails.

Executing a refreshing read all query, based on the required locations, on UnitOfWork A, after UnitOfWorkB has committed will update the vendors within the UnitOfWorkA, including those that may have been added to a location. This is most likely the easiest to implement. For efficiency you may wish to use your Read Only Session to execute the refreshing queries for the Vendors. By performing the query based on the possible Locations you will retrieve all of the available vendors, including those newly added.
uow.refreshAllObject(collectionOfLocations);
..or
ReadAllQuery query = new ReadAllQuery(Vendors.class);
query.refreshIdentityMapResults();
query.setSelectionCriteria(query.getExpressionBuilder().get("location").equal(location));
uow.executeQuery(query);

Master Style page changing/deleting images

Hi all -
This has been a reoccurring problem for quite some time. I have several master style pages in my project; each one is laid out the same with my company's logo and a module name in a header, then a copyright in the footer. While working, I'll get a prompt that says the master style has changed and needs to be reapplied to all the connected pages. This would be self-explanatory if I were editing the headers/footers while working -- But I'm not. Only the page content.
It's always my company's logo that disappears from the header when this happens. This is the prompt I get:
This happens no matter what master style the page I'm working on might have.
(It just happened now and I didn't change anything in the headers or footers.)
Please help.
Thanks!
Erin

Indeed, there is a table in the Master page header, and the graphic goes in that table.
However, the edit to the TD tag was in a topic to which the Master was applied, not to the Master itself. IIRC, when editing a topic, you cannot edit the master page that is associated with it.
Are you by chance also using the Resource Manager to manipulate or coordinate the company logo? One thought was that if you are, perhaps something about the checking/updating process with the Resource Manager is causing an issue.
I'm not using the Resource Manager. The image is fully cropped and edited in PNG format before I place it, using the little picture icon. It then shows up in the Project Manager.
But if you see a hummingbird signature on the radar along with a cold front producing a storm, you will always pay more attention to the storm than the hummingbird, no?
I'd be so fascinated with the hummingbird I'd stay out in the rain to watch it. But that's just me.
Glossary text can be formatted in the Style Pod. Is that not the requirement?

Email button from Order template conformation page.

hi,
I got new requirement.in that i have to give give email button on Order template conformation page.
if i click on email button new popup page will come and it will contain from email id,CC and messege.
and i have to add entire item list in email.
please guide me something for this requirement.
Thanks in advance,
jayesh talreja

Hi Jayesh,
Its an interesting scenario .Anyways to add an email link to the confirm.jsp all you need to do is to add the below javascript and html to confirm.jsp
function email() {
 var url='<isa:webappsURL name="/ecall/customer/interaction0.do?interactionType=email"/>';
 var spd=window.open(url,"compareWindow","menubar=no, directories=no, height=600 width=750, scrollbars=yes, status=no, toolbar=no, top=84, left=212");
 spd.focus();
<tr>
 <td class="value">
 <a hre="javascript:email()"><isa:translate key="cic.prompt.index.mail"/></a>
 </td>
</tr>
Adding these lines will you a link for email on confirm.jsp on clicking on which you will get a new window with the Cc and all
the required fields and it is used for sending the mails. But your issue for sending the item data from confirm page is still left.
I will also try to find out the easiest way to send this data.
Regards,
Arshi

Adding SiteFeedWebPart to a page

Hi all,
I have created a custom Web Template based on Team site (sts#0). When I created a new sub site based on my web template, the page is empty and it does not contain Promoted links, documents list or Site feed web part. So I am trying to add them by a feature
event receiver. but I can not find out how do I create a SiteFeedWebPart instance. I succeeded creating GettingStartedWebPart and added it by using SPLimitedWebPartManager. I have search on google. How I can create a Site Feed web part programmatically
and why the page is empty? thank you alot for helping me.

Hi Medes71,
I’m not sure how you create the custom web template, I just save the existing team site as a template, and create site based on the template, the home page is like the home page of team site
with Get Started web part and Site Feed web part.
If you want to add the site feed web part programmatically, you can use the following code sample to add the default web part:

How to delete a template in pages, how to delete a template in pages

Have looked on forums... 1. Cannot find "Go" on finder menu. 2. No library found. 3 Cannot delete nor can I drag old templates into the trash.
My templates folder is pages is cluttered with old templates. Are they here forever? Or, can they be removed?

Simpler version of deleting templates using Pages:
Utilizing v. 5.5.2
Go to Pages and select New
Select My Templates
If you don't have the right click enabled on your trackpad, click control and select the template you want to delete which gives you the option to Rename or Delete the file.
Hope this helps

Is there a way to create my own template on Pages for iPad?

Hi, I've searched for this topic but can't seem to find a recent thread. I need to know if there's a way of creating a new template for Pages on my iPad. Would love to use the iPad more in school but can't seem to get it to do what we want it to! If this isn't possible then can anyone suggest an App that would be more useful. Many Thanks!

This was discontinuted in CS5 howerver you could migrate that plugin to CS5. I don`t know if you can do this with CS6.
To my knowledge they only provided a revised Contact sheet II script for CS6. In my opinion a very bad idea because they should have put all efforts and resources to enhance the Output Module PDF contact sheet that has far more options.
Still not using web galleries but the goal for web gallery was also to use this in the Adobe Output Module, maybe that provides you the options you want?

Si vous avez utilisé la commande Save As Template depuis Pages, il y a forcément un dossier
iWork > Pages
contenant Templates > My Templates
comme il y a un dossier
iWork > Numbers
contenant Templates > My Templates
Depuis le Finder, tapez cmd + f
puis configurez la recherche comme sur cette recopie d'écran.
puis lancez la recherche.
Ainsi, vous allez trouver vos modèles personnalisés dans leur dossier.
Chez moi, il y en a une kyrielle en dehors des dossiers standards parce que je renomme wxcvb.template quasiment tous mes documents Pages et wxcvb.nmbtemplate à peu près tous mes documents Numbers.
Ainsi, quand je travaille sur un document, je ne suis pas ralenti par Autosave.
Désolé mais je ne répondrai plus avant demain.
Pour moi il est temps de dormir.

HELP --- Error while adding Portlets to the Page. (WWC-44012)

Hi all,
I have a pl/sql portlet. It compiles fine and shows up perfectly in portlet repository. But when i add this to the page, I get following error
Error while adding Portlets to the Page. (WWC-44012)
An unexpected error occurred: User-Defined Exception (WWC-43000)
An unexpected error occurred: User-Defined Exception (WWC-43000)

I checked the portlet specification file (.pks) and body file (.pkb) for any mistakes but they seems fine.
Does anyone know what can cause this error?
Any pointers in this regards will be highly appreciated.
Thanks!!!
Rajesh

Rajesh,
Could you provide some more details about your code? I will try to look into possible causes of the error. One thing you may try is subscribing to the Knowledge Exchange on http://portalcenter.oracle.com. Then you could post your code in your community folder and everyone would be able to test it out.
Of course, this means you must be willing to share your code with everyone.

Can not create template based page with customized page type.

I built a customized page type (with persepective attribute) and wanted to build pages with this type. If the new pages do not based on any template, it works fine. However, if I wanted to use a template, the page type was set back to "standard"!
Steps to reproduce it:
1. create a new page type - test page type.
2. create a new template = test template.
3. create a new page - test page.
3.1 choose the page type to be "test page type"
3.2 fill in the form including the new attribute info.
3.2 choose the page template to be 'test template"
3.3 click finish
4. click the properties of "test page", it shows that the page type is "standard" and the new attribute information is gone!
If in step 3.2, no template is chosen, the properties of the new page shows the page type is "test page type".
I tried to find a workaround.
1. create a page with "test page type".
2. covert the new page to template.
I got this error message:
Error while copying page. (WWC-44262)
(WWC-00000)
Looks like customized page type and template can not coexist. Is this a bug?

How long should the upgrade take? And should it be attempted on a production (infrastructure on machine 1/middle-tier on machine 2) Windows 2000 architecture? Or should be wait for 9.0.4? Or ... should I ask this in a TAR? Thanks!
