Reuse complete layouts with Templates and linked Globals
Templates and Globals both help you reuse groups of components, but they solve different problems.
Best for
Starting a new layout quickly
Repeating content across several pages
Connection after adding
Independent copy
Remains linked
Later edits
Affect only that copy
Can update every linked instance
Common examples
Hero sections, feature grids, forms
Menus, headers, footers, announcements
Templates are reusable starting points. After adding one to a page, its components become an independent layout that can be changed without affecting the original Template or other copies.
Globals remain linked wherever they are used. Update the Global once to keep shared structures and content consistent throughout the project.
Use a Template when each copy should evolve independently. Use a Global when every instance should continue sharing the same source.
Build and test the component layout on a page.
Decide whether future copies should remain linked.
Save independent starting points as Templates.
Save site-wide or repeatedly maintained content as Globals.
Preview changes on every page where the layout appears.
