Could you add a discussion on the security issue on the CodePlex project site (http://templatelibconnector.codeplex.com), and I'll look into it asap.

Sorry for tossing you around, but it'd help me a great deal to gather all issue feedbacks in one place :)

Thanks for the clarification. I didn't clear that option becuase I have other Content Types I need there but, I've cleared it for now.

The next issue I'm having is it can not open any of the files. I get the following error once I select a doc and Word opens:
Could not open "http://myserver/Templates/directory/file.doc".
it's missing the subsite, should be looking for "http://myserver/mysubsite/Templates/directory/file.doc"

Everything appears fine in the menuing when selecting the file, so it's mapped correctly, just when it goes to retrieve the file, it's not looking in the right place.

Any ideas?

I have another idea for an enhancement, next... so look out.. :)

There's no such thing as a newbie question here :) I'm happy to help however I can.

The problem is the content type, I'm afraid. That option will automatically add entries to the "New" menu.

My next update will contain an optional setting to hide Content Type related entries at the root of the New menu, along with a generic fix for the JavaScript issue.

I'll attempt to have both of these available within the next day or so, but I'm fairly pressed for time at the moment - so I hope you can hold your horses for a little while longer :)

I'm having problems with the temporary fix... Exactly how do I disable the default document templates for the list?
Sorry for such a newbie question but I can't find it on the library's advanced settings page.

I have:
Allow management of content types: Yes
Open in Client application
Display New Folder command on the New menu: No
Allow items from this library to appear in search results: Yes

Hi Todd.

This is a known issue in SharePoint, and I'll be properly working around it soon :)

This is exactly what I've been looking for!!! thanks!!

One problem I am having though is that the submenu does not stay open when mouse over it... it immediately disappears once my mouse leaves the "Templates" entry under New.
