Page: Design >> Templates
All available style templates can be found in the Templates section. You can either use these styles unchanged for your Web design or use them as a basis for individual customisations. Each template defines a specific layout and design, as well as site structure.
The style templates are classified into two major groups: private Web sites and commercial Web sites. Below this level there are various suggested industry templates and style guides. There are various basic styles per type, for which additional colour variants may exist.
To select a template, proceed as follows:
  1. Select a topic. To do this, browse through the structure displayed of the listed topics. The available designs for each topic are displayed.
  2. Select the design you prefer from those that are shown. The design is displayed in a magnified view in the right column. If there are variants of the selected design, they are shown in the form of colour boxes below the preview image.
  3. Select your colour variant. The available degree of customisation of the selected template is displayed below the image using paintbrush symbols. These refer to the possibilities available for customising the template. If more paintbrushes are displayed, you have more freedom to customise the template. According to the degree of customisation, notices about requirements or limitations are displayed. When you click the preview image, a larger illustration of the design is displayed in a new window.
  4. Click Apply to import the selected style into the table in the My styles tab.
In case you do not want to use a preconfigured design and you wish to create your own design from the ground up, the Templates group in the Business Web sites area is available. This contains various layout variants that do not contain any design information. This gives experienced designers the maximum level of freedom to customise.
There is also a Display all templates function. This generates an overview of all templates.
Note: If you do not change the name of a style and reload the style with the same name from the templates, any changes you have made will be overwritten and the style will be reset to its original settings. You will be asked to confirm this command.
