how to edit text on your template

STEP 1: The first step is to make your webpage as usual with the basic structure of the site. This should be common to most of the pages in your site. Note: Don’t put unique content in this page.

For building a new template, you can simply click on Basic template.

STEP 2: Once you have created the structure. Go to File and click on Save As Template, give a name to the template and click on Save.

STEP 3: When the blue bar appears on top says <
STEP 4: Now you need to make parts of the template editable so that you can put in content and add information that is unique to parts of the site. As the main content of the pages will keep changing let’s make that region editable. E.g. The white space in the middle of your site is obviously an editable region, as this content is unique to each page.
STEP 5: To make an area editable you need your cursor to be in that location, then go to Insert/Template Objects/Editable Region.

Give an appropriate name and if you are successful, you will notice a light blue box with the name of the editable region in your cursor’s location.
