Templates

There are two kinds of template in Soda.

Built-in layouts

The agent has 26 layouts it builds from: 6 carousel styles (Bold Numbers, Editorial Serif, Tech Window, Photo Overlay, Split Block, Minimal Line), 14 single posts (quotes, tips, announcements, testimonials, lists, statistics, events, hiring, product) and 6 photo-led posts. You do not pick these from a gallery: describe what you want and the agent chooses, or name one: "use the Editorial Serif carousel".

They are painted in your brand colours and fonts by default. You can also ask for a named palette: midnight, paper, ocean, forest or mono.

Your own templates

1. 1Open a design you want to reuse and choose File → Save as template….
2. 2Give it a Name and, if you like, a Description.
3. 3Choose Save template. Everyone in the workspace can now use it.

Start from a template

1. 1Open Templates in the sidebar.
2. 2Choose Use template, pick the Brand it is for, then Create design.
3. 3You get a new design, a copy. Changing it never changes the template.

• A template is a snapshot of the design at the moment you saved it. To update one, save the improved design as a new template and delete the old one.
• An admin, or the person who made a template, can delete it. Designs already made from it are not affected.
