      We're not using templates at all. None Of that detail in that link is relevant to what we are doing. But yet, it still wants us to specify a template even though the template is a url

        A URL is a particular kind of URI.

        That's probably not relevant, but throwing it out there helps muddy the waters a little

          Ah, so user error. You're supposed to set up templates, but you haven't. Then you're complaining because it wants to know which template to use.

                Suity, this chick obviously needs her requirements gathered.

                So, get to the phonebox, get changed into your Suity-Hero costume and sort this out !

                (Apologies for using the word 'chick' as it's slightly sexist and I know bitches don't like that)
