Limit on number of template I can save?

[Ginger Singh 0]

Hello,I am trying to utilize several templates in my work, but when I went to save a template just now, I got a message "You've reached the limit of 20 templates."  I am a premium user, and cannot find any language about limits on the number of templates I can save.  Any ideas?  I love templates, and the limit of 20 is, well, quite limiting!!

The Evernote limits are identified here  https://help.evernote.com/hc/en-us/articles/209005247-Evernote-system-limits

fwiw  My templates are stored as a collection of notes identified by tag: !Template
           I've automated processing with scripting (Mac).  Duplicate Note also works.

Thanks! 

What is confusing is that on the "How to use Templates" page, the language used under how to save templates is: " Repeat this for as many templates as you’d like to save."  No limit is mentioned anywhere on any of the template pages.  Maybe it is in the videos, but I cannot listen to those, so I need to read text. 

Thanks again.

Pretty sure I saw another thread somewhere here confirming that the current limit is 20,  but implying that there will be more options in future.  It's a new feature,  so I'd guess the teams don't want anyone basing a whole operation on templates just in case there's an overwhelming need to drop / suspend the service in the short term.  Once any bugs are worked out - or they've added all the necessary bells and whistles - there will presumably be a more complete roll-out.

In the meantime as @DTLow pointed out,  Macs have scripting options,  and desktops generally have the 'save a special blank note in a notebook and copy it to duplicate the layout' possibility.  Some -maybe all now- mobile devices should also be able to copy and edit template notes from their own account.  Windows users have their own special power of being able to export a template note to a desktop ENEX file,  and double-click that icon to create a new template note.  I have a template notebook in Evernote,  several ENEX templates in a desktop folder,  and Evernote-saved Templates.  Maybe I'll tidy some of those up a bit next year...

The limit of 20 template is not going to work when Evernote is encouraging us to save templates from the latest email.  How about lifting the limit?

Hi @Terri Thank you for reaching out!

As @DTLow and @gazumped mentioned, the limit for templates that can be saved is currently 20.

However, I'm happy to let you know that we are currently in the process of increasing that limit.

While I don't have specifics, we are working to implement this as soon as we are able.

Feel free to reach out to me if you have any other questions!
