Hi!

Also make sure you save the file as ISO-8859-1 so you don't get UTF-8 BOMs.

OK :idea:
I have figured it out.

But before I dive into that : many thanks for the brilliant support.
I really do appreciate it :D

There could indeed have been a problem with CR/LF's or UTF encoding. At least my FTP program was messing up .txt files (auto ASCII mode for certain file extensions).
I did however not solve the problem.

In the end I went for something less obvious. I noticed that all template folder names were in lowercase except for two: GreenMile and my own MindOnX. I changed both template folder names to lowercase (e.g. mindonx), one by one, and then they appeared in the drop down menu.

I have not figured this out in the code, but at least I have a fully working solution.

Cheers,
Eric
