How do I open a custom template?

I feel like I'm missing something very obvious here. I downloaded a custom template from the iWork community and I got a zip file with a bunch of pdf documents in it. In Pages, I can't seem to find a way to open anything in that folder; I don't know how to install a new custom template. Help?

Which template was it, so that we can check it out?
A Pages template will have .pages as an extension and all you have to do is click on it to open it in Pages.
Did you checked what you wrote ?
In the box or custom, a Pages template has the extension ".template", not ".pages".
In the box or custom, a Numbers template has the extension ".nmbtemplate".
Documents with extension ".pages" or ".numbers" aren't templates but standard documents !

  • Pages 5.52 does not open my custom templates from previous versions?

    Pages 5.52 does not open my custom templates from previous versions?
    Pages freezes and I have to force quit
    Whats happening

    Pages v5 (including v5.5.2) lacks about 100+ features found in Pages '09 v4.3. When Pages v5 encounters unsupported content in Pages '09 (or very early Pages v5) templates, it communicates this to you as an application freeze. As Pages '09 v4.3 runs on Yosemite, and you may still have it in /Applications/iWork '09, you may want to use it instead. Recreating templates is not the best use of your time.

  • Making Pages open a custom template automatically

    Hi,
    I made a custom template in Pages 09, and I would like to know how to have it open as a default.
    Thanks,
    Brandon

    Go to preferences & click the second button to use a particular template then click the "Choose" button to tell Pages which one to use.

  • How can I delete a custom template in Pages 09

    I have just bought Pages 09.  I creates a custom template , however I would like to delete it from "My Templates"  . I am using Lion 10.74 and am new to Mac.

    Pages stores those you created & saved as templates in (your account) > Library > Application Support > iWork > Pages > Templates > My Templates. The user's Library is hidden in Lion but it is easy to open. In Finder, hold down the Option key while clicking on the Go menu & your user Library will appear about halfway down the list.

  • How do you make a customized template?? When I customize an original template it does not apply it to the whole document! How do you apply style changes permanently to your document???

    When one customize text styles or spacing between paragraphs. How do you apply settings permanently to a document???
    Should you create a new template???

    Happily, when you edit a document created by a given template, the changes aren't stored in the template.
    If you want to get a template embedding your changes, you need to use :
    File > Save as Template
    then use the newly created custom template as starting point.

  • How can I open a customized report in a new window?

    I am trying to create printable views for my reports that are published as portlets. In specific, I would like a link to open the report up in a new window where the user can print at. I have figured out how to do this with the default report created. However, after a user has customized the report, is there a way to open the customized report in a new window?

    Hi
    I do not think it matters whether your reports portlet is a default one or a customize one. I think whne you place the portlet, you can specify in the property to open up the result in new window. I think it is common feature of Portal.
    Thanks

  • How can I open an Excel template on the BPC 7.0 MS server?

    We would like to open an Excel template which is stored in the BPC 7.0 MS server.
    We could do that by using EVMNU("OPENFILE", "Open", "Input Schedules/HQ/H01 Currency Input.xlt")
    in OutlookSoft 4.2 environment, but we cannot do the same thing in BPC 7.0 MS SP7 environment.
    In BPC 7.0 MS, we can open the Excel template on the client PC only...
    Regards,
    Hiroshi Yaji

    Hi Hiroshi,
    Are you trying to open the template from a custom menu?
    You can open the templates on the server from the client system by going to data input and selecting "open an existing schedule". This will list you the templates available on the server.
    However, for the general purpoe, you can use the following MNU commands
    MNU_eTOOLS_OPENSTANDARD: opens the report template library
    MNU_eSUBMIT_OPENSTANDARD: opens the input schedule library
    MNU_eSUBMIT_OPENMY: opens my schedule folder
    Hope this helps.

  • How do I get the custom template working?

    Hi, I have asked this here before and got a half answer, but on trying the answer things didn't work out, so I'm trying again as I feel the previous thread has been lost.
    I want to create a custom list template so that I can display a list of News Announcements on a home page as described on this page Business Catalyst Help | Using custom templates for modules
    I have done all it says; created a list template and saved it as listHome.tpl in the Layouts/Announcement folder. On the page I have linked to it with the following code
    {module,announcement,a template=”/Layouts/Announcement/listHome.tpl”}
    But it doesn't generate a list, the page merely displays the code. Seems simple enough, yet it won't work. Can anybody tell me where I am going wrong please?
    Thanks

    Thanks Adam, yes, I was getting the raw code, but correcting the code to module_announcement has fixed that. However, I am now getting 'No News found' instead which is not what I want either. On the news page I am using {module_announcement,a,}  This gives me the list of news announcements using the original list template, which is what I want on that page, you can see it here News  But on the home page, using this
    {module_announcement,78981, a template=”/Layouts/Announcement/listHome.tpl”}
    I get 'No News found' as the output, I was expectign just the one news announcement with the id of 78981. Ideally I want the code to generate the latest 2 news announcements.
    (This has also been posted on Linkedin BC Cafe, what ever solution I get I will post here for future reference for others).

  • How do I save a custom template in Numbers '09?

    I have done this successfully in the past but cannot do it now. After creating a template, I have tried following the directions:
    File > Save as Template
    but there is no folder named My Templates in which to save the file. The specified path:
    Library/Applications Support/iWork/Numbers/Templates/My Templates
    does not exist. This is as far as I get:
    Library/Applications Support/iWork '09 (with 2 subfolders, neither of which seems appropriate)
    Thanks in advance for any help I receive with this!

    As Jerry said, you should not need to find the My Templates folder. Choosing Save As Template from the File menu in Numbers (or Pages) will automatically select that folder. If the path doesn't already exist it will be created the first time you choose to save a template. Here is a screenshot of the save window when I choose Save As Template in Numbers.
    Should you want to delete any templates you have created or want to place any you have downloaded in the My Templates folder you will need to navigate to the folder. You are looking in the main HD Library folder not your user/home Library. In Lion the user Library is hidden & you need to go to Finder & hold down the Option key while clicking the Go menu to reveal it.
