Guys I searched in the forums and googled on how do add file templates to Dolphin. File templates in this context means, pre-defined files that I can easily create. For example: I usually do a lot of presentations with the same template and some standars, so I created a blank Presentation.odp file and I can easily go to New -> Presentation.

I can archive the same result on nautilus by adding the files into ~/Templates/

Thanks in advance,

You may find the following to be of help: http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=53353

By the looks of it, the location of the file itself does not matter, it just requires the creation of a *.desktop file with the right lines to show a template.

Example file ( place in ~/.kde4/share/templates )

Code: Select all

[Desktop Entry]
Comment=<Comment on template>
Icon=<Icon name for template>
Name=<Name for template>
Type=Link
URL=<path to file>

Thank you that worked
But my (kde4) templates are located on /usr/share/templates

The template location I gave was for user specific templates, /usr/share/templates is the XDG system wide location.
