It sounds like you have a very very old app that is still using the legacy forms settings method. That's was replaced in NC12 in #796. What app shows up there?

muchachagrande · 2023-11-16T18:37:17Z

Hi @joshtrichards, this is a screenshot of what is on the page in question:

It's on the Personal section. As you can see, there is only the personal templates and the global templates.

This is not a very old installation. May be I installed version 24 or 25 and been updating since then.

joshtrichards · 2023-11-16T19:12:49Z

Looks like your situation was probably introduced here: nextcloud/text_templates#6

I thought the "additional" approach for Settings was deprecated, but not my area of expertise. Maybe I've misunderstood it.

This will either need to be fixed in Server (if it's supposed to be supported still) or addressed in the text_templates app (if it's not).

@nickvergessen Any insight since you touched both ends of that code?

nickvergessen · 2023-11-17T07:22:52Z

This will either need to be fixed in Server (if it's supposed to be supported still)

We just don't recommend it, but it should work, so should be fixed in server.

Hello,
I have the same bug, is there any way to discover what is the faulty application?
