Copying a stylesheet from a channel to an account as a template.

Stylesheets templates are a good way to save commonly used stylesheet entries. There are two ways to create a new template. The first way is to generate a template from scratch just as you would a normal stylesheet. Alternatively any existing stylesheet entry or template can be duplicated as a new template. To copy a stylesheet to a template:

  1. Navigate to the Stylesheet under "Channel Content".
  2. Click the "Duplicate" button
  3. Select "Account (as a template)" as the area to duplicate into.
  4. Click "Submit" to create the template.

After a template is created you are able to make changes to it just as you would a normal stylesheet entry. For compatibility reasons any changes to templates will not be reflected in the stylesheets created from them.
