Where are OpenOffice templates stored?












0















My computer has somehow gotten out of sync. I can save a document as a template in a directory of my choosing, but when I go to use the Templates and Documents dialog, I get this:



Templates and documents dialog



I have no idea where on my hard drive these folders are. Where is "Templates/My Templates"?

            You should find them at:




            ~/.openoffice.org/3/user/template




            If you have OpenOffice 2, then replace 3 with 2 in the above path.

              This location can also be moved. Navigate to Tools - Options - OpenOffice.org - Paths and change the value for "Templates". There can be multiple template paths, or, you can delete the existing path and create a new one altogether.

                As of March 2018, LibreOffice 5.1 the template folder for Linux is under:



                ~/.config/libreoffice/4/user/template/


                Btw: searching for .ott (writer templates) helped me find it…
