Just struggled to figure out why my template wasn't working, and I found that they do not work if the file buffer part begins directly with a *. This tripped me up as I expected it to work. See terminal screenshot below (I restarted Emacs after renaming the file, and opened a new .html file to test it.)
I'm on Mac OS X 11.4. GNU Emacs 27.2 (build 1, x86_64-apple-darwin18.7.0, Carbon Version 158 AppKit 1671.6)
of 2021-03-27
I can workaround by not using * and just having the extension, eg. "00:.html" but I wonder if it should be documented if this is by design, as it might trip up others as well.
