I have exported several of my templates from one project over into another, but I get the following error on them. Not sure what to look at. The only -1 I have is in the style customizer.

Hi,

Could you maybe attach the template export to this post? It looks like something is maybe getting mixed up on a dataset typed property. It would be easiest to track down if we could just import and replicate it.

Thanks,

I actually spoke to tech support and it had to do with the import/export of the SQLTags and not really anything to do with templates.

That might be true, and we’ve fixed some issues with import that will be in beta 5 (going up this morning), but we didn’t specifically replicate this problem, so I can’t say for sure that it’s fixed. However, once the new beta is up, you can go through the export/import routine with your objects and let us know.

Regards,
