Hour 23. Creating and Applying a Template

You create templates to provide a foundation for consistent, controlled Web pages. Templates contain objects that you mark as editable; the rest of the template is locked. When you update an original template, it will update throughout your site.

In this hour, you will learn

  • How to create a template from both existing content and from scratch

  • How to apply a template to a Web page

  • How to edit the original template and update linked Web pages

  • How to mark a selection as editable
