Frame 2015: HTML5: Can HTML template import be made sticky?

I'm publishing to HTML5 with Frame 2015, but it seems the html template has to be reimported every time. This is what I see:

  1. Modify a custom template.html
  2. Open settings.
  3. Import custom template.
  4. Save and close custom .sts settings file.
  5. Publish.

Now I will see my changes. For example, if I changed the footer.

However, if I change the footer again and save the html template, I don't see those changes in the output unless I redo steps 2-5.

Is this the correct behavior? If so, any way around having to repeat the steps?

TIA

    Yes, the design involves to re-import the template if there are changes in the template. It is designed in such a way for 2 reasons:

    • Users finalize the template then use it for publishing
    • The .sts (settings file) could be re-distributed for publishing

    If we are talking about the same thing, it doesn't work. I've changed the HTML page template 30 times during development of the output, and the changes are never picked up unless I reimport the template (lots of clicks and tedious).

    So you're saying that the "Use HTML Page Template" setting isn't saved in your .sts file?
