Have you set your template as your default template? On Linux: Files/Templates/Manage Templates. Probably similar on Windows.

Hello, I'm using LO 7.6.2.1 on Win11 and Mac. I can't get the styles to work and stick in templates. I've used styles and templates in MS Word for 30 years before switching to LO in the past 5 years. I've read the help, Writer User Guide and Designing with LO 2nd Ed. and apparently have missed something conceptual as I can't get the styles to stick within the templates. I've created the styles in blank documents and then saved the document as a template.I expected that the paragraph, font, list formats & styles that I created would be saved in the template and reusable in subsequent documents created from the templates. But when I use the templates to create a new document, none of the previously created styles are there. I find I have to recreate all the styles again as they aren't anywhere within the template. So far it's been a colossal waste of time. I've found that all the "Youtube University" and User Guides are superficial when it comes to styles. My goal is to set up a set of corporate styles that can be used by numerous people in our organization to ensure consistency. Can someone direct me to some more detailed documentation on how the styles are supposed to work? Perhaps with some more detailed documentation I can figure out what or how these are supposed to work ... or file a bug reports. Thank you in advance. B.
