Problem with Watermarks

When publishing pics from any gallery, I have since about 1 week a problem with choosing the watermark-template.
Now only it showes only 2 possibilities:
"Managed by Lightroom" or "no watermarks"
Before I could also choose any Template I made myself.
(I have different for different kinds of clients)
I use the client response gallery.

Any ideas who this can be solved?
Thanks
George

I think it is since the last update of LR

Re: Problem with Watermarks

Are the watermarks you previously created still there?
In the Library Module you should be able to go to Edit > Edit Watermarks. In the drop-down menu at the upper left you should see all the watermarks you've created. If they're not there, you'll either need to re-create them or find where they went.

Did you happen to have to reinstall Lightroom? Or move to a new hard drive?

Re: Problem with Watermarks

Or did you move the watermark files, or the folder that contained them?

Re: Problem with Watermarks

Hi and thanks for replying.

I found a solution now, thanks.
(Maybe some other users will have the same issues soon too...)

Since the last update of LR CC, Adobe changed all directories for all LR-preferences and all stuff (Watermarks, color profiles, develop presets, and so on).
(On Mac from the library directory to the directory where the LR-catalog is located).

But I found a trick:
Now I duplicated the watermarks-directory to the old original directory, and it works again.
(When Update the watermarks,Imust of course also copy these again to the old location too.
LR itself uses them from the new location.

Merry Christmas
George

Re: Problem with Watermarks

Well, Adobe, that's lovely. Glad to hear that's happening. I was unaware. =/

Re: Problem with Watermarks

Might be a difference between LR CC and LR CC Classic?

Re: Problem with Watermarks

Or, isn't there an option in the preferences to store some things with the catalog? If you toggled that, that might be the problem.
