Adding to My Templates
Jan 20, 2020
I am still fairly new to Storyline and my manager wants me to create a company branded template to use moving forward. I started working on this template last week and saved it as a .storytemplate. I wanted to continue working on that template today but can't figure out how to open the template project. It only let's me open a new project using the template. How do I go back into my template file so that I can continue adding slides to my template?
Thanks for any assistance.

1) To create a new story based on a template, double-click the template file in the computer's File Explorer window.
2) To edit the actual template, open Articulate, then use the BROWSE option to find the template and open it from inside Articulate.
Jerry #2 worked for me!! Thank you so much! I was able to open my template and now I can keep editing the template. I appreciate your help!!
What are the benefits of using a .storytemplate within a team?
Every time a new presentation is started, it has all the branding on it, and each module will have a consistent look and feel. If you are really aggressive, a lot of things can be added to the master slide and/or standard slides safely stored in an unused scene.
I know, all those items can be loaded (one at a time) from Teams, but if they are loaded from a template (which could be stored in teams), there is one load, and you have everything.
