The collections section in the unroole admin panel.

Page templates allow you to save a page layout or design for use in another channel or at a future point in time.

  1. Switch to 'Advanced Mode' to see the template menu.
  2. Navigate 'Page Templates' in the 'Template Library'
  3. Click on a page template to get more information or to modify the template.

Note that since page templates are located at the Account level and not on a channel there are some limitations in the functionality they provide.

  • Page templates do not use the theme or site layout queues available at the channel level.
  • Previews of page templates are restricted.
  • Certain references or system generated tag ids/classes will change when saving a template.
  • Some widgets may loose their channel specific properties when copied into a template. These must be re-populated when build a new page from a template.
  • Page templates do not employ the same versioning feature of pages. Templates will be created from whichever version of the page you were working with at the time.
