Template probably doesn't work on DNN 8 about dnntemplates

[ChrisHammond]

What is the PATH of your project on the file system?

C:\inetpub\wwwroot\dnn8_dev\DesktopModules\FormCreator
and for dnn 7
C:\inetpub\wwwroot\dnn7_dev\DesktopModules\FormCreator

Maybe problem is with Visual Studio 2015? (I created this in 2013).

using DotNetNuke

It is marked in gray color. For dnn7 problem is too but only for views files (not .cs) and I don't have to change form 4.0 to 4.5 framework target.

For DNN8 you have to switch the project to compile to 4.5.1, after that it should build

well, I am running DNN 8.0.0 switched to compile to 4.5.1 from 4.5.2, and I still get the same namespace error mentioned above. This worked great in 7. If I create a DNN7 DNNDEV.ME site and create the module there, will I be able to deploy it to a DNN8 site?

I'm seeing this on VS 2015 Pro and and VS 2017 Pro on Windows Server 2012 and Windows 10 respectively, using the latest templates and they're compiled against .NET 4.5.1 (the default of the latest template).
