Installing Templater
- Ensure that your user account for your operating system has administrator privileges.
- Quit After Effects.
- Unzip the Templater download archive (.zip) to a temporary directory.
- Navigate to the installer file for your license type and operating system.
WARNING Trials should always use the Standard installer. If you've installed the Floating license version of Templater without a license, you will receive an invalid filter ( 25 :: 3 ) error message when you try to add the plugin to a layer.
- Double click the installer file to begin installation.
- Follow the installation wizard prompts.
- Verify installation is complete by following these steps:
- Launch an Adobe After Effects version that received the Templater installation.
- In After Effects CC 2018 or earlier, Open the After Effects Preferences > General page; for CC 2019 and newer, open Preferences > Scripting & Expressions. Ensure that "Allow Scripts to Write Files and Access Network" is enabled.
- From the main menu, select Effect > Dataclay. If you find the Templater Settings effect, the native After Effects plugin is installed correctly.
- From the main menu, select Window. If you see the Templater 2.jsxbin menu item, the panel file is installed correctly.
