Templates

Templates enforce a standard layout across multiple pages and within content regions on pages within your iKnowBase application. With templates, you can ensure that you have a consistent look and feel across the portal. You can create a template once and use it for multiple pages or layout pages. When you modify a template, the pages or the regions based on that template are automatically updated. You can use an existing template for a page or a layout page, or create you own template by writing your own FreeMarker template code.

See Part V for further information about FreeMarker and available FreeMarker model objects.
