Created template not working
Hi
I'm new to Joomla4. I've created a simple test-template with template toaster. Just added a header with some background, added some background-color to the page, ...
Imported via extensions and everything seems fine if I look at the overview of installed templates. The thumbnail is showing it the way I've created the template. However when I launch the site it doesn't show my header, it doesn't show the backgroud-colors.
What can be wrong?

Re: Created template not working
Template toaster and other similar template builders do not enjoy a good reputation,they often create a great deal of bloated code trying to comply with all systems and as such do not work well.What can be wrong?
Your better off using Cassiopeia and learning how to customise it.

Re: Created template not working
I doubt that this problem is at the side of template toaster.
I downloaded a free joomla template and there I have the same problem. Lay-out isn't what is it supposed to be

Simple test, use Cassiopeia as your template and see if the error persists.

I don't see the backgound with the trees and the stars?

Re: Created template not working
Thats because you haven't added it to cassiopeia . Any modifications to a template are not used if you use another template.

You need to remove the [] from the url.
