Export a Site Template

You can export a site template to modify it offline and then import it either as a new site template or to replace the existing site template. You can also export a site template to move it to another Oracle Content Management instance and import it there.

When you export a site template, you essentially copy the site template to a folder in Oracle Content Management as a single .zip file. You can download the site template package directly from the folder to unpack and work with the individual files. When you are done working with the site template files, create a .zip file that contains the site template package and import it into Oracle Content Management to overwrite the original site template or create a new one.

Note:

When you export a site template, sharing information for the site template isn’t included.

To export a site template:

  1. In the Oracle Content Management side navigation, click Developer.
    The Developer page is displayed.
  2. Click View all Templates.
    A list of existing site templates is displayed.
  3. Select a site template and choose Export in the right-click menu or click Export icon in the actions bar.
  4. Navigate to a folder or create new folder by clicking Create, providing a name and an optional description, and clicking Create.
    To open a folder, click the folder icon or the folder name.
  5. Select a folder by clicking the checkbox for the associated folder and click OK.
    A site template package file is created in the selected folder with the site template name and a .zip extension.
