- Then, right-click on the folder containing the file, navigate to “Give access to”, and select “Specific people”. Click on “Specific people” to proceed.

- Once “Specific people” is clicked, the Network Access tab will open. Select the users you want to share the folder with, then click the “Share” button.

- Once “Share” is clicked, a window similar to the image below will appear. Keep this window open.

- Open Microsoft Word, go to File, and then click on Options.
- Once Options is open, select Trust Center, then click on Trust Center Settings and go to Trusted Add-in Catalogs.

- Another window will pop up. Enter the URL as shown in the window of step 6 as Catalog URL, then click on Add Catalog. Once the Catalog is added, check the Show in Menu box, then click OK.

- Restart Microsoft Word, click on Add-ins in the main ribbon, then More Add-ins:

- Click Shared Folder. If you do not see the Template Editor, click on Refresh. Once the Template Editor add-in appears, select it and click on Add.

- The Template Editor should now appear in your ribbon.

- Refer to the documentation below to create a user in Join Admin, which is also necessary for the template editor.
- To run the template editor, you also need to create a user in the JOIN admin system with the username “templateeditor”.
