I am trying to create a template that includes the date. Why does the date I insert not automatically update?

You are most likely using the function which only inserts the current date and does not automatically update it. To insert the date and have it automatically update, this can be done as follows:

1. Open Author and select Insert -> Fields -> Other.
2. From the Type panel, choose Date. From the Select panel, choose Date, choosing Date (fixed) will cause the date to not automatically update. From the Format panel, choose the format of your choice. Press Insert.
3. Save your template and the next time you use it, the date field will be updated accordingly.
