Using a template in a modification

When you set a modification variation to use a template, the variation does not define its own content but instead receives its content from the template. Any changes to the template also affect the variation.

To use a template in a modification:

  1. In the Frosmo Control Panel, in the sidebar, select Modifications.

  2. In the modifications list, find and open the modification in which you want to use the template, or create a new modification. For more information, see Creating and editing a modification.

  3. In the Basic settings view, in the Content section, open the variation in which you want to use the template, or add a new variation.

  4. In the variation settings, for Content source, select Template.
