Just for info, the new Web version is working on my installation of Opera (v. 57), and does seem to have templates functioning. Link to comment
Ex Employees Jay-Bob 127 Posted February 18, 2019 Ex Employees Share Posted February 18, 2019 Correct, Templates will only be accessible on the new version of Evernote Web, which is currently not supported on Firefox (only Chrome and Safari are supported, no ETA on Firefox or other browsers). Please see this FAQ article under "Why can't I see templates in my account?" for more information. @Shavonne79 I've created a support ticket on your behalf to investigate this in more detail with you. For other customers encountering similar issues, please first make sure your Evernote applications are up-to-date. If you are a Premium subscriber, you can create a support request here for further assistance. Link to comment
Shavonne79 0 Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 Looks as if the original poster was using chrome on his phone. I was using the Evernote app. Perhaps it only works if we use Evernote on an actual computer with chrome? I know what though, if these requests for help continue to be ignored by Evernote, I will be referring everyone I know to OneNote. If I didn't have so many notes in Evernote I would make the switch myself Link to comment
JonMorgan 0 Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 I had the same issue with Templates Not being available at all,. I was using FireFox and the template button was nowhere to be found. Quite frustrating and wasted time. I then thought to try it in Chrome and lo and behold, the Template button was there in all it's glory. The Template Library showed up as well. So, if you're using Firefox then that is likely the issue (not sure why Evernote doesn't like Firefox) but you need to use Chrome,.. I hope this helps. Link to comment
Shavonne79 0 Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 I am having the same issue as ambassadeur. What's going on? Link to comment
ambassadeur 0 Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 And I see now that a second template has appeared (by itself while I was talking to you), but it's none of the templates I did a View Template on! Chfooy Link to comment
ambassadeur 0 Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 And there is no Web Evernote for the Android Chrome browser. And there is no Chat (or even Help) in Android Evernote, but merely Explore Evernote. Boo! Link to comment
ambassadeur 0 Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 In my case, I'm on Android Evernote 8.7.0, which should be the latest. I haven't previously used any templates. I took the 30-day Challenge, and it worked, and I now have their initial template as the only template. It said it was the 2nd template of 4, so I browsed & found another template (a GTD template) and followed the video, by doing a View Template and so on. At the end, I do not see the new template when I add a note. Now, as it took me through getting the Challenge template, it took me through Login, which gave me the choice of Google or Evernote account, and I picked Evernote account (Ambassadeur). Maybe that messed up my subsequent attempts to add a template, because maybe it wants a Google one now? Also, it gave me the choice of opening the template on the Web or in Evernote, and I chose Evernote. Maybe it won't written this way? I see a padlock in the lower right corner when the template loads. And when I Save the template, I get an error message saying it can't save (created in another app), but not why or what to do about it. If I say Web instead, it says it saves it, but again, there's nothing there. So, what? Is anyone listening? Link to comment

If you get these backwards, problems abound, as in this case. Accessing your saved templates is a little different from how we've done things. To find your templates, you have to be on the new Evernote Web or the latest version of each of our clients. Open a new note, select Template and "My Template". Do you see your templates saved in there? Link to comment

Trentphoto 0 Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 @Scott T. Yeah, I try to save a template and it shows the blue alert, "Creating template..." for 30 seconds or so, then says "Failed to save template." Link to comment
Ex Employees Scott T. 662 Posted January 7, 2019 Ex Employees Share Posted January 7, 2019 @Trentphoto Are you still having problems saving a template? If so, is it the same behavior as Tupira where you have to log in over and over? Seems like a case where the credentials aren't being saved, so it is unable to save the template. Link to comment

My fault for not following directions, although it would be great to view all the templates in a folder (and if you can do that, my apologies again). Hopefully this follow up can help someone else who made the mistake I did. Thanks, tom, Thanks for posting these instructions. I did notice a video when I first started using the templates, and thus I ended up saving a couple of templates several times trying to get it to work. And you’re correct, it would be nice to just import selected templates into the Template notebook. So I basically created a bout a dozen notes in my Templates notebook for each of the templates are might want to try out. Link to comment

Tupira 0 Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Has anyone resolved this? I am unable to save any templates. Evernote is a great tool but so buggy! Every time I browse templates it takes me to the web client in which I have to login again then, browse the templates again and when click save, it fails. I tried the web and desktop versions on MacOS Mojave, the web version does not leave me logged in when trying to browse templates. If I log in it takes me back to evernote (out of context) then I keep going backwards and forwards between trying to remain logged and saving a template. Please fix your UX and front-end!

Zappa 0 Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 Sounds like there's a growing list of template issues. Unsure if mine is related but I can see the button and use the basic templates I saved from the website but whenever I try to save a new one it comes up with an error saying I have reached the maximum number of templates (it says 100 on the desktop version, 20 on the web version) even though I have nowhere near this many saved. When I spoke to support they confirmed there is a known bug with Templates at the moment, apparently the max was 20 which seems WAY too low, and they are expanding the maximum number you can store to 100 which is better but still seems low IMO (why not just make it large like 500), as of today the bug still exists.
