1. Open Template Manager (Ctrl+Shift+N), make a new category (use "gear icon", select "New category", and choose a name,e.g., NewCat) 2. Add a new path for templates (i.e., Use Tools - Options (Alt-F12) – LibreOffice – Paths – Templates), Edit Template, add a new path and make this new path as default. 3. Move/import a template to “NewCat” 4. Use Template Manager to rename category “NewCat” Actual result: “Warning: Cannot create (new category name) Expected result: Should be able to “rename” the category.

Sorry, but I don't understand this step. I don't know what I should do with "Edit Template, add a new path and make this new path as default". Which template am I editing? How do I add a path etc.?

Use Tools - Options (Alt-F12) – LibreOffice – Paths – Templates 2. With Templates selected, click "Edit" button 3. Click "Add" button in "Edit Paths: Templates" pop-up box 4. Select the folder (new or existing) that you want to add to the Templates path. 5. This folder should now be added to the list, and it should be possible to select the radio button for this folder -- which will made this new (added) path as default. 6. "OK" (to close Edit Paths dialog) 7. "OK" (to close Options dialog) Repro at least once with: Version: 7.2.3.1 (x64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 1d5dee817bde88d78dbcc0d00f88492568e131d5 CPU threads: 8; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19043; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win Locale: da-DK (en_DK); UI: en-US Calc: threaded (meanwhile, new problems seem to appear, since last time that I tested (e.g., have to close and reopen template manager to have a new category be applied). So -- you will be able to rename -- but if you close and reopen the template manager, then you will see that the "changes" are gone. (this is new. But I was also able to reproduce the OP, once, but could not find a reliable procedure.) The general issue here is that it is possible for the user to add multiple paths for templates, and to make one of those paths the default. And it is possible to have the same category name in all these paths. The "problems" seem to be connected to how the template manager decides to change a category name. It seems that in version 7.2.3, it does not use the default path that was set (like it used to -- which is probably why the OP reported that the name could not be changed).
Sorry, I had some kind of a brainfart and didn't understand all of step 2 was being done in options dialog :) However, I can't reproduce the problem with Arch Linux 64-bit Version: 7.4.0.0.alpha0+ / LibreOffice Community Build ID: f586839956d6937920aa377fe95854c1a0518d96 CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.15; UI render: default; VCL: kf5 (cairo+xcb) Locale: fi-FI (fi_FI.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded Built on 3 December 2021
Repro (with slight modification): Version: 7.4.0.0.alpha0+ (x64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: e63fe68fb1d0915b64fdf63f7fa6eed866fa3a0d CPU threads: 8; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19043; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win Locale: en-US (en_DK); UI: en-US Calc: CL New instructions (for latest version of template manager). 1. Open Template Manager (Ctrl+Shift+N), make a new category (use "Manage" in top right corner, select "New category", and choose a name, e.g., NewCat). 2. Add a new path for templates (i.e., Use Tools - Options (Alt-F12) – LibreOffice – Paths – Templates), Edit Template, add a new path and make this new path as default. 3. Use template manager to rename the new category (i.e., select category, then Manage, Rename category, enter new name). Actual Result 1: Cannot create category: (newcategory name) Actual Result 2: Sometimes the category name does change (not sure why/how I was able to do that), with no error message. But if you close the Template Manager, and reopen it, then the rename is reverted back to the original (with no error message).
Reproduced with version that repairs category renaming problem (bug 146375). The OP STR is still valid/accurate for this version.
