Hi

I have the following setting 

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

(setq org-capture-templates
      '(
        ("mk" "Grupos Ejercicios" entry (file "~/grupos2024.org")
         "** TODO %^{Grupo} %T %^g %(org-contacts-template-name)
         :Link:  %a   
         :Email: %(org-contacts-template-email)
         :Grp:     %^{Gr1|Gr2|Gr3|Gr4|Gr6|Gr7|Gr8|Gr9|Gr10|Gr11|Gr12|Gr13}
         :Usuario1: %:fromname
         :Email1: %:fromaddress
         :Usuario2: %(my-extract-cc)
         :Email2:  %(my-extract-cc)
         :Status:   [ ]
         :Hoja:     
         :Ej:       
         :End:")))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

and I am facing two problems.
When I call org-capture and select this template the corresponding buffer 
    1) the corresponding CAPTURE buffer looks like 
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

* TODO G13 <2024-02-02 12:06> :Annu24: Joe Foo

         :Hoja:     
         :Ej:       
         :End:
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

In other words ** has been replaced by * which I don't understand.


The second problem is concerns the ID
the resulting entry looks
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
* TODO G13 <2024-02-02 12:06> :Annu24: Joe Foo
  :PROPERTIES:
  :ID:       298f63f5-b67c-4c21-a820-2c8a6501b48c
  :END:

         :Ej:       
         :End:
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---


So automatically an ID has been inserted, that is fine but now there are
two ENDS which I have manually to repair (and the indentation is wrong)

Any idea how to solve this problem
