Hi Vera, I kept on being surprised about the "templates" bit so I did a check, it's indeed still supported, as a general fallback, but it's really the last attempt on user visible resources*, performed even after checking the legacy GeoServer 1.x locations. See the full lookup code here:
https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/blob/eae842ab548519dbfb4e1923d3ff97f93180b550/src/main/src/main/java/org/geoserver/template/GeoServerTemplateLoader.java#L139 So I'd rather document the main path, instead of the last desperate attempt: put the templates for headers and footers in "dataDir/workspaces" rather than in "dataDir/templates". Cheers Andrea *: there is another past that, which looks up the templates in the GeoServer own jar files.
