I am trying to create a site template for a project site. On the home page of the site, I have a Timeline web part (new for SP 2013). When the web part is created, the data source defaults to the site in which it was created.
However, when I create a site template based off of this site, it keeps the absolute URL as the data source. This makes it so every time I create a site based off of that template, I have to go in and change that URL to the new site's URL.
Is there a way to have the data source be a relative URL so I don't have to change it whenever I create a new site?
Troubleshooting Steps Taken
I have already tried using an App Part for the task list, but the view includes not only the timeline but also the full list. I just want the timeline.
Also, I have tried using just "/template", "/", and even "./" (I was desperate) as the URL, but I get the following error: "The URL provided is invalid or does not have a valid timeline source. Check the provided URL and validate again."
