Saved Templates

Saved templates can be created from a page you have already designed in Beaver Builder (including a Themer layout), or they can be created from scratch in the WordPress back-end.

Usage

You can save the Beaver Builder layout for any page or post as a template. This is useful in several ways:

• When multiple pages need to follow the same layout structure.
• When you want to export a layout and import it into another website.
• When sharing layouts with team members, clients, or across different environments.
• When distributing layouts through a custom theme or plugin.

Key Information
*Saved templates are not global.
*Editing a saved template will not update pages already using it.
*Saved templates are not public pages and are not indexed by search engines.
