How Are The Templates Stored?

The community templates are stored on filesystem. Community templates are stored in PortalServer-DataDir/portals/portal-ID/communitytemplates directory (referred to as communityTemplateBaseDir). Note that this means that each Portal (in a multi-portal deployment environment) will/must have its own set of community templates. The resource bundle in communityTemplateBaseDir defines the meta-data associated with each template. In addition, each template has its own directory where the role templates are stored.
