hmm, are you simply copying the files into the template location ?

can you do "file->templates->commands->update" and see if that does the right
thing for you ?

i.e. from the help
"You may need to update the view of the templates in the dialog before you can
see a newly created template. In this case, choose File - Templates - Organize
and in the submenu of the Commands button, choose Update."

in my case i created a template and saved it to a random location, and used
file->templates->organize->my templates->command->import template to add my new
template, then on creating a new presentation from the wizard I got a "my
templates" entry on the dropdown list and my template was listed.

Yeah, that got it. I'll close this and the other template bug report as they're
related. Thanks
