HTML Template not loading
« on: April 19, 2012, 10:22:56 AM »
I'm running Mac OS 10.6.8 and PM 4.6.8 and all of a sudden my HTML Exporter won't load the template. I get a message "No Templates Found" even though I haven't moved the template. I also don't see a way to redefine the path to the template. I am attaching a screen shot of the export dialog.

Thanks,

The control for that path setting is in the Files section of the Preferences dialog.  What do your settings look like?

The path you have chosen is inside the Photo Mechanic application folder.  Is that where you have stored the templates you've created?

I'd really suggest using some place inside your Documents folder instead.

Yes, I store those templates there and also save my stationery pad templates. This makes it easier for me to move my PM files when I need to synchronize between my laptop and desktop machines. I still don't know why this isn't working on my desktop, since it works on my laptop with the same file path.

Would it be possible to see the full path?  Paste it into your reply.

Try taking out the 'ƒ' character.
