# Managing Templates

Learn how to manage and assign Templates to Pages

## Why Templates matter

A **Template** defines the structure and appearance of multiple Pages at once. Instead of editing every Product or Media Page individually, you can manage content and design centrally. Changes you make to a Template are then reflected across all assigned Pages, making it an essential tool for efficiency and consistency.

## How to create a new Template

You can create a new Template by **pressing the “Create” button** at the top right of the screen and then selecting the “Template” card from the Library.

## The Template layout

When you open a Template in info.link, the interface is divided into three main sections:

## Header section (top)

At the very top, you’ll find:

-   **Internal name and version number** – the name of the Template and its iteration number (e.g. _(v3)_).
    
-   **Assigned pages count** – on the right, you can see how many Pages currently use this Template.
    
-   **Action menu** – click the menu button labelled with three dots “…” to
    
    -   **delete** the Template
        
    -   **clone** (duplicate) the Template. This makes it easy to create new Templates based on existing similar Templates without starting from scratch.
        

> **Info:** Please note that cloning a Template **does** **not** also create clones of the Modules inside. For example, if Template A contains a specific Green Claim Module, then cloning this Template will still contain this specific Green Claim Module (and not a newly cloned version of the Module).

## Content section (left side)

Below the header, the left side of the interface is organized into tabs that let you define the Template’s details, Modules, and appearance.

### Details tab

Contains internal information:

-   **Internal name** – the private label used to identify the Template.
    
-   **Internal description** – a note to explain the purpose or scope of the Template for colleagues.
    

### Content tab

This is where you add the Modules that will appear on all Pages assigned to this Template. It works the same way as the Content tab for Pages:

-   **Header Module** – typically containing your organization’s or brand’s logo.
    
-   **Other Modules** – such as Link, Text, Green Claim, or Footer with legal information.
    

#### Managing Modules in Templates

Modules appear as cards, just like in Pages. At a glance, each card shows:

-   **Kind and title** – e.g. Header, Link, Text.
    
-   **Language and region icons** – showing translations and regional visibility.
    
-   **Action menu** – lets you edit or disable a Module.
    

You can:

-   **Reorder Modules** with drag handles (except Header and Footer).
    
-   **Disable Modules** via the action menu on the right of the card (e.g. if a promotion ends).
    
-   **Edit Folders** to manage which Modules they contain.
    

### Appearance tab

The Appearance tab controls the color scheme of your Template:

-   **Background color**
    
-   **Text color**
    
-   **Button color** (i.e. the colour of all content blocks in the public Page)
    
-   **Button text color**
    

Changes made here will automatically apply to all Pages assigned to the Template.

## Assignment and preview (right side)

The right-hand section mirrors the Page preview, but instead of publishing a Page, you assign Templates to Pages.

### Assignment tabs

-   **Draft** – visible when you’ve made changes that are not yet assigned.
    
-   **Assigned** – shows when there is no Draft state.
    
-   **History** – shows the past versions of the Template.
    

### Live preview

Below these tabs, you’ll see a preview that simulates how the Template looks when applied to Pages. This live preview updates in near real time as you edit Modules or appearance settings.

## Assigning Templates to Pages

When your Template is ready, click **Assign** in the Draft tab. The **assignment dialog** opens.

### Assignment dialog

Here you can assign the Template to any Page(s) in your account:

1.  **Select the Pages** you want to assign the Template to (_later:_ Uncheck any Pages you want to remove the Template from).
    
2.  Regarding the checkbox **Republish all assigned Pages** in the lower left of the dialog:
    
    -   if **checked** (default), all **Pages using the Template are automatically republished** with your changes.
        
    -   If you **unchecked**, affected Pages are placed in a **draft state**. You will need to review and publish them individually for changes to go live.
        
3.  On the bottom right of the dialog, **click the confirmation button** to finalize your assignment choices.
