Web template not recognized
I have created a web template and exported a site to ~/App_Data/Templates

When I try to create a new site from template using the new site wizard, I get an error that there are no web templates.

Any idea how that can happen?

Thanks!

Step 1 is select web template, there is no step 1, only an error.

Hello,

Could you please post a screenshot of the ~\App_Data\Templates\ folder? Please make sure, it is the correct project folder.

Hello,

what exactly do you need to know about the folder, a screenshot will not tell you very much? In the folder ~/App_Data/Templates there is a folder with the same name as the web site template. That folder contains the export of a site (data folder and all contents, such as cms_info.xml.export etc).

Nothing really special about it.

RE:Web template not recognized
Hello,

Could you please check the path where the web templates should be located (CMSSiteManager -> Development -> Web templates)? The error is generated, if no template is found, so it is probably a wrong written path.
