Page Templates
Page Templates let you save complete Gridder layouts and reuse them as a starting point on other pages, projects or news posts.
A Page Template is not a public page on your website. It is a reusable Gridder layout stored in the WordPress admin.
Enable Page Templates
Go to Lay Options → Extra Features and enable Page Templates. After saving, a Page Templates item appears under Lay Options in the WordPress admin sidebar.
Enable Page Templates in Lay Options
Create a Page Template
Open Lay Options → Page Templates and click Add New Page Template. Give it a title and build the layout in the Gridder just like you would build a normal page.
You can add rows, elements, backgrounds, phone layouts and other Gridder settings. Save the template when the reusable layout is ready.
Page Templates are managed in their own admin list
Use a Page Template
When Page Templates are active, the Gridder toolbar shows a Page Templates button. Click it while editing a page, project or news post.
The Page Templates button opens the template chooser
Select a template in the modal and click Replace current layout with page template. This replaces the current Gridder layout with the saved template layout.
Choose a template, then replace the current layout with it
What gets copied
- Desktop layout — rows, elements, row settings and element settings from the template.
- Custom Phone Layout — copied too when Custom Phone Layouts are active and the template has a phone layout.
- The current layout is replaced — use Page Templates before building a page, or make sure the current layout can be overwritten.
