Confluence Docs 3.0 : Global Templates This page last changed on May 15, 2008 by edawson. A template is a pre-defined page that can be used as a prototype when creating new pages. Templates are useful for giving pages a common style or format. Global Templates are defined by Confluence administrators and are available in every space across the site. Templates are written in regular Confluence markup, using special markup to define form fields that need to be filled in. To add a global template, Go to the Confluence 'Administration Console'. To do this: Open the 'Browse' menu and select 'Confluence Admin'. The 'Administration Console' view will open. Select 'Global templates' in the left navigation panel. Click 'Add new global template'. Enter a name for your template in the 'Name' text field and an optional description in the 'Description' text field. Using regular Confluence markup and form field markup (if you are using forms), enter content in the text-entry box as you would in any other Confluence page. Click 'edit' next to 'Labels' if you want to use labels to categorise information. Add your labels. These labels will be included in all pages created using this template. Preview and click 'Save'.
