Cannot create new List using saved List template
Hi to all,after saving a custom list as a template, i can normally see it on the site collections list template gallery.Nevertheless, when i click on the Site Actions Create, i cannot see it under the Tracking heading and as a result i cannot create a new list based on the saved template.I tried to find if the list is also saved as a feature and try to activate it, but it is not inside the site nor the site collection features.Any ideas?Thanks in advance

Could you describe the settings of List Template Gallery and your accounts permissions? Please verify the following: 1. In List Template Gallery > Settings > Versioning Settings, Content Approval is enabled. 2. In List Template Gallery, the Approval Status of the saved templates is not Approved, If both 2 conditions are true, then you cannot see the template when you want to create a list under Custom Lists group. For this scenario, you should contact someone who is a member of Approver group or has equal permissions in List Template Gallery and ask him/her to help you approve the template. -lambert

This is not a customization question. Moving it to the Admin forum. Please in future post Admin question there directly.

Sorry for posting my question to the wrong place...Hi Lambert, the answer is no. The content approval is not enabled int the List Template Gallery > Settings > Versioning Settings.

Hi I have a similar problem. Had your list template been imported from MOSS2007?

There is property in web called ParseEnabled if you set it to false you will not see saved template whenever you try to create new list. To solve this problem need to set ParseEnabled to true: To know more information about SharePoint SPWeb Property ParserEnabled check Url: http://sharepointserver-2007.blogspot.com/2012/04/sharepoint-spweb-property-parserenabled.html Tarek Yehia
