I have created core worksheets, from these (which have the links) I have created templates.
How do I make sure the links follow the path?
Meaning when I save the Template as 1231 Test from 1231 Template.
???? GRRRRRRR
Hi,
Can you explain more in detail because I'm not sure what you mean?
Best,

So I have created a worksheet. I took that and created a template. When you open the template, (you have to save as a new), so I tried just saving it as the same name and dropping it into a new folder. When I do that, the links are broken, It will update the "template" sheet not the new one I created.
Hope that helps
I'm not entirely sure what you mean still, but I think that you want to have links (cell-links?) intact when you create a new sheet from the template or sheet? Correct?
When you open a template, you should get a preview of it and then chose "Use Template" and then chose a name and some options.
When you have a sheet (sounds to me that is what you're using) and chose "Save as New" you also get options for name, data and formatting options (make sure that you chose the right options)
If you want to edit a template, you must use the original sheet and then create a new template or create a new sheet from the template and save that as a new template.

I created 2 sheets. One sheet has links to the other. Now when I choose to save them as new to drop in a new folder, the links do not stay, I have to recreate the links once I open them in the other folder. Make sense?
Ok.
Are they placed in a folder already? If yes, you should "Save as new" from the folder and that will keep the links intact. If no, place them in a folder.
Understood, they are in a folder and when I go to "save as new" I put in a different folder and I lose the links still. Getting frustrating as I need to be able to do this since the original 2 are the templates to use and save as new with another client name.
Is everything in a workspace?
Is it sheets or templates?
Can you share them with me?
yes in a workspace
sheets
how do I share with you? I assume just add you on the share?
shared!
Is there a way to revert to the old dashboard look and feel. The new dashboards do not look good at all. There is no way of knowing if there are additional items in the widgets until you scroll over one to learn there is more to it since the vertical bar doesn't show. We have hundreds of dashboards and they will all need…
When i try to send or print the timeline view instead of showing the progression bars like they do on the screen it only send the data entered and not a graph type view to print. Is there a way to do this. I am using a mac platform if that helps.
I have reproduced the following behavior in a validated Smartsheet application. User permission: Editor (not Admin) Row status: Locked (confirmed via row menu displaying "Unlock Row") Text, Date, Contact List, and Checkbox columns cannot be modified. Dropdown List columns remain editable. Selecting a new dropdown value and…
