Multiple "Form templates" for a category doesn't work

Contribute Bug
1

Hello! I think that I have run into a bug related to the “Form Template” feature when it is activated for a category.

I can select two distinct form templates for a single category (which a user can than choose from for their post) and it works initially. But when I refresh the page, only one of the two form templates remains as the default template.

Here’s a video demonstration to make clear what I mean.

Let me know if you can confirm if this is a bug or just limitation of the feature or something else.

If it’s a bug and can or will be fixed, that would be nice to know too :slight_smile:

Ah this appears to be a bug… thanks for the video! a save button should appear when you change that template setting, but it doesn’t appear to. I can reproduce this issue locally too. We’ll get it fixed, but for now you can avoid this by disabling enable simplified category creation from /admin/config/upcoming-changes

Thank you! You workaround did the trick. Keep me posted on whether there is a fix down the road so I can get the simplified category creation back on. Or I’ll wait for the general roll-out of the feature.

I’ve just merged a fix for this, it will be available if you update Discourse soon!
