Creating a site from a site template

When you create a site named Mysite by copying a site template, you copy its root and data folders. For information on the contents of these folders, see About site templates.

To create a site by copying a site template:

1 Choose File > New Site > Copy from Template.

2 Select a site template from the list. You can use the layout and structure thumbnails provided with each template listed for help in making the selection.

3 Type a name for the new site.

4 Click Browse, navigate to the folder that will contain the site, and click OK to select the folder. The site template that will be copied to the folder already has an umbrella folder; you don't have to create it.

5 Click OK.

The new site automatically opens in a site window. For more information, see Using site templates.
