How Offline templates are updated
Templates which have been made available offline are locally stored on the user's machine. If new templates are made available or Space owners made edits to existing Offline templates, they will be synchronized with the Templafy Desktop update mechanism.
If edits are made to the template itself, Templafy will trigger a redownload of the template with the next Templafy Desktop update cycle. Examples of updates on a template level include activating or deactivating it for offline availability or downloading and replacing the document.
Edits to template details such as the template name, folder location or Space, will become visible with the next Templafy Desktop update. For detail changes, the template itself will not be redownloaded.
Why a template cannot be made available offline
There are multiple cases in which a template cannot be made available offline:
- The limit of 5 offline templates for the template library has been reached.
- The template is being processed, generating previews, validating or failed processing.
- The template contains unsupported Dynamics components.
ImportantIf a template that was previously enabled for offline is replaced with an unsupported file, or a file that failed processing, an error message will be displayed. The template will no longer be available offline, however the admin will need to manually untick Make this document available offline: |
