    Default NEW TEMPLATES not found in CONTRIBUTE

    I am sure this is a simple problem to many out there.
    I have just created several nice new Templates in Dreamweaver for Contribute
    use.
    However, I cannot access them via Contribute when trying to create a New Page.
    Pressing the Refresh Button does nothing.
    Using the Dreamweaver Site Map I can see that they are there in their correct
    Template Folder, but Contribute does not seem to be picking them up for some
    reason.
    What have I done wrong?
    How can I put it right?
    Your priceless help will be much appreciated.

    Is this site being administered with Contribute? That is, do/can you go to the
    Admin dialog from the My Connections dialog for this particular connection? If
    so, then you need to add this template to the list of templates that appear for
    each role.

    Dear Deeje,
    Many thanks for your quick response to my problem. You certainly put me on the
    right track. Yes, I do have Admin status (along with boss, etc) and was able to
    'go behind the scenes' and make the amendments you suggested. After some trial
    and error it worked. The Template folder and my five new templates were there
    and accessible via Contribute. What I did, within Dreamweaver in the Remote
    Site, was physically move the Template folder into the public_html folder
    (previously, MX2004 had placed it 'outside').
    Everything looked good, EXCEPT that the image links in each of the five
    Templates were all broken. I have tried to put things right, but without
    success. Therefore, can you please help me with this secondary / by-product
    problem?
    Have a good weekend (or I hope you had one).
