Create New Template

When you create a new template, we basically save the current files and database snapshot of an active site, so when you create a site off of the template later, you will have the exact same site.

To create a template, open the site dropdown and select "Save as Template".

Enter the template name and a description for you to remember it by.

    + Private Template - can be used by you or your team.

  • Instant Template - When you create a new site off of the template, it takes about 4-5 secs of time, when this option is selected we instantly launch a new site using our secret InstaWP magic.

Hit Save. Navigate to the "Templates" screen and you will see your template being created.
