Streamline your page creation process by utilizing Pages Templates. Create your ideal layout to serve as a template, or even add content and design elements, making it easier to create future Pages. Utilize templates to ensure more uniformity when multiple content creators are working in your Showpad instance, helping your organization stay on brand. Any time you create a new Page in your instance, you’ll find a Templates tab to choose any of your existing templates to get started.

You can mark any of your existing Pages as a template, or create new, specific Page templates. If you update a template, the Pages you've already created using the same template will not be updated.

You need this to succeed
