Description Laurent Balland 2023-12-26 08:30:57 UTC
Description:
Indonesian LO Community introduced some templates (Candy, Freshes, Grey Elegant, Growing Liberty, Yellow Idea). Authors add a README file in each one (except Yellow Idea) which are available in source code, but not in the embedded template that users have access.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Check source code for README files in presnt folder [1]
There are 4 files for Candy, Freshes, Grey Elegant and Growing Liberty templates
2. In your installation folder [2], unzip the corresponding template files


[1] https://opengrok.libreoffice.org/search?&path=README+presnt&project=core&sort=fullpath
[2] instdir/share/template/common/presnt/

Actual Results:
OTP files contain no README files

Expected Results:
OTP files should contain the README files


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes

Additional Info:
Missing files:
- /core/extras/source/templates/presnt/Candy/README.txt
- /core/extras/source/templates/presnt/Freshes/README.md
- /core/extras/source/templates/presnt/Grey_Elegant/README.txt
- /core/extras/source/templates/presnt/GROWING_Liberty/readme.txt

These should be uniformed and add to OTP files or remove from code.
Comment 1 Laurent Balland 2023-12-28 12:46:06 UTC
I suggest to move the content of these README files to description tag  in meta.xml so that they easily appear for user in File > Properties > Description > Comments, like for Grey Elegant template (since LibO24.2.0 beta1)

@Heiko, do you think it make sense?

+1 from my side. Ilmari, what do you think?
