Thank you -- a newcomer to Obsidian, and your templates have been awesome.
I'm having trouble with the people template, as the template itself gets automatically moved to my People folder instead of staying in the Templates folder. Any suggestions?

@high5rise At what point is the Template itself moving to the People folder? This can happen if you're running the "Replace templates in the active file" function from the Templater plugin while the Template file is active. But if you've created a NEW page using the Template file, and then run the function on the new page, then the Template file shouldn't be impacted.

Ah, that solved the issue: I didn't have the "Trigger Templator on new file creation" option toggled on. Instead, I had put in the template in the Startup Template field, which was causing the move issue at startup of Obsidian. Should have followed the instructions! =) Thanks, @dannberg
