Hi
I’m new to Glide, but not to No-Code, and I’m a developer. However, I consider it is hard to start with Glide. All the tutorials are I have found are old. And I feel a frustration that a simple thing that using a Template I cannot do it. Why? Because I have a free version of Glide?
I mean, I have experience. I have installed many templates on other applications, but now I cannot. When I choose Template from my workspace, I get a screen with “Things”. What does it mean? Why can I not choose a Template from the templates page?
Until now, my user experience is hard … it is not as intuitive as I believed that this application would be.
I do not know what I’m doing wrong. Can anyone help me? How can I create an App from a Template?

Can you step us through what you are doing with some screenshots or a video? It almost sounds like you are attempting to create a brand new private template instead of trying to copy a template from the template store.
Are you using the template store?

Thanks for replaying. Was there a problem with the server today? The problem was that nothing happened when I selected a template, instead it led me to login and there I couldn’t select anything. But, now I have tested again and when I choose Template then, I can create a copy of the Template. It was unable to do that before
Best regards

There was indeed a problem with templates in the last few days. Sounds like it’s working again.
