Having done my due diligence (rtfm) I have created a template with the name
Template:Test-Template
Upon viewing this page looks great.
I then created a new page
Test-Usingtemplate
In which I entered
{{subst:Test-Template}}
Which the fm says
{{subst:Name}} inserts the content of the page "[[Template:Name]]" when you save your text.
This would lead me to believe when I SAVE PAGE it will get the template I created and insert all text into this page.
What I get on SAVE PAGE is a page that says
{{subst:Test-Template}}
I am sure that I have gone awry here.
Ideas?

Is you wiki public so we can have a look?

Sorry, no. I might have to make a copy of it and put it on an external box for things like this.
