Create New Page Template

Use the Create Page Template dialog to create a new page template for all portals (if accessed through the Shared Assets page) or for the current portal (if accessed through the Assets page). More

Every page in a portal has an associated page template that defines the structure and layout of the entire page. All pages in a portal use the same page template, set as the default by the portal manager. This ensures that all pages in a portal look and behave consistently. More

Only users with the application-level permission Create, Edit, and Delete Page Templates can create shared page templates. Users with the portal-level permission Create, Edit, and Delete Assets (standard permissions model) or Create, Edit, and Delete Page Templates (advanced permissions model) can create portal-level page templates.

Element	Description
Name	Enter a name for the page template. The name is displayed in the Assets or Shared Assets page and in lists when selecting a page template. Make the name as descriptive as possible.
Description	Enter a description for the page template. The description is displayed below the name in the Assets or Shared Assets page and as a tool tip when selecting a page template. Ensure that the description helps users determine if they want to use this particular page template.
Copy From	Select an existing page template to use as the starting point for your new page template
Continue	Click to create and list the new page template on the Assets or Shared Assets page. The empty check box in the Available column indicates that it is not yet published and hence is not available to other users. More After initial creation, the new page template is identical to the page template selected from the Copy From list. The next step in creating a page template is to edit the layout and content to meet your requirements. More
