How do you import templates from V9 into V12?  en

Hello,

When I was using Evolution V9, I modified a template for use with my website, and now that I've upgraded to Evolution 12, I would like to use that template again.  The free template was Business - Wedding.  I found it under Under the "Website x5 v9 - Evolution > Templates > 13.business > Wedding > Hor > #2" folder on my computer and my edits to the images are in the folder.

I did find: https://helpcenter.websitex5.com/en/post/64864 and I opened the project and exported it as instructed.  But when I imported it into v12, it gave me Services > Services 11 for the template.  The Business > Wedding is not available in v12.  There is a Business 13 in v12, but it's different and it didn't even get selected when I imported it. 

I don't need the website from v9 as it has changed a lot since then, but I do want the template.

Under the WebSite x5 v12 - Evolution > Templates folder, there's only _Custom and Previews and 330 .iwtpl files that I can't see what are are what is in them.  They're all dated 9-7-15. I have downloaded templates, so I don't understand why they're not in the Templates folder for v12 like they are for v9.

Attached is a screen shot of the unedited template from v9 that I want in v12.

Thanks,

Mathis...

Not all templates that are available from earlyer version are available in the newer versions.

Export was only possible from v10.

If you want an templatefrom an earlyer version you need to create this manually.

find the files needed for that template by looking in the folder where the header pictures is in v9. there you will find the files needed for the rest of the template.

In v12 start with a custum template then import the files from the template you found earlyer.

It is a bit of work but you should be able to create it this way.

Best Regards.
