Can I create and save my own templates within rapidweaver? I understand that I could make a partial for the same purpose, but I’m just curious about template formation and saving them.

Thanks,

Tom

Hi Tom,

If you refer to Templates inside Stacks, then stick to Partials. Templates were there before Partials, and for the most part are still there to support older content from users updating to Stacks 3 from older versions. Less flexible and more complicated to create, I wouldn’t think it’s a good spend of your time.

with kind regards,  
Karn.
