[Tex/LaTex] Are there new beamer templates other than the defaults

beamertemplates

I have to make a presentation in LaTeX, the beamer themes have now become mundane.

So, I have two questions:

  1. I tried to use the Stockholm template. I downloaded the zip from here. I was unable to even compile it in LaTeXila and TeXmaker (Ubuntu). There are only 2 errors but I can't figure them out (I am not posting the errors).

    Click here for the template at overleaf (Just click download as zip button on the left hand side panel).

With Latexilla the errors are:

You have requested package `beamercolorthemesthlm',but the package provides `beamercolorthemev42'.

You have requested package `beamercolorthemesthlm',but the package provides `beamercolorthemev42'.   

File `newpxtext.sty' not found.
  1. Are there any newer presentation templates for beamer ?

Thanks

The first error

You have requested package `beamercolorthemesthlm',but the package provides `beamercolorthemev42'..

is just a naming error in the theme. Meaning the filename doesn't match the name given in the \ProvidesPackage{} command. This should not prevent you from typesetting a presentation with it.

The actual problem seems to be, that you don't have the newpx package installed which the theme uses. So please update your packages:

How do I update my TeX distribution?

EDIT: If you cannot, because of whatever reason, update your packages and install newpx you can also remove the newPxFont option when loading beamer. So replace:

\documentclass[newPxFont,sthlmFooter]{beamer}

with 

\documentclass[sthlmFooter]{beamer}

in the template file. This way the newpx package will not be used.
