# Share Pages as Template

Starting from **ONEWEB version 4.0.19.11**, Page Designer allows users to **save and share any page as a reusable template**.\
This feature helps teams standardize page layouts, speed up development, and reuse proven designs across pages, applications, and even environments.

Page Templates can be shared and reused for both **Web pages** and **Mobile pages**.

***

### Open Share Page Template

1. Open the page in **Page Designer**
2. Click the **Share** option from the Page Designer toolbar

### Ways to Share a Page Template

A page can be shared in **three different ways**, depending on how widely you want to reuse it.

***

### 1. Share Within the Same Application

This option allows the page template to be reused **only within the current application**.

#### How It Works

* Enable **“Share in this application only”**\
  \&#xNAN;*(Selected by default)*
* Click **Share**

#### Use Case

* Reusing layouts across multiple pages
* Standard sections within a single app
* Maintaining consistency inside the same project

***

### 2. Share Publicly

This option allows the page template to be shared **with all users on the same ONEWEB server**.

#### How It Works

* Uncheck **“Share in this application only”**
* Click **Share**

#### Important Notes

* Recommended for **on‑premise or dedicated servers**
* On shared cloud environments, typically used for **starter / demo templates**

* Across servers

#### Step 1: Export Page as Extension

1. Open the **Share Page Template** dialog
2. Click the **Download** (export) icon

#### Overwrite Confirmation

Using an extension template will **overwrite the current page**.

### Design Perspective

As part of **Page Designer best practices**:

* Use templates for **repeatable page patterns**
* Prefer application‑level templates for controlled reuse
* Use extensions for **cross‑project standardization**
* Always preview templates before applying
* Be cautious with overwrite behavior

Sharing pages as templates increases **reuse, consistency, and development speed** across ONEWEB projects.
