How to migrate a page to a template?

Hi all,

I was fired up creating a homepage in the page editor.

Like many others, I think, I wasn't aware of the fact that I need to recreate the whole thing if I want to use this design in order to dynamically load stuff like blogs or products.

Is there a way to duplicate a page to a template (and the other way arouind)?

 

Thank you.

  Hello Matthias,

  There are plugins for duplicating pages, but those only duplicate pages in the same "area" , they can not move them to templates (as far as I know).
  
  But there is a workaround, you can use the Save block feature in Brizy - the heart icon shown on every block options toolbar) to save the blocks in the page one by one and then re-add them in the template page you are trying to create (by pressing the Add New button and going to the Saved blocks tab).
  
  In the near future, we will add the option to Save entire pages and import them anywhere, inlcuding external sites (on both Wordpress or Cloud).
  
  All the best,
  Bogdan Condurache,
  Brizy team

  All right. Thank you Bogdan.

   

  When I want to make changes afterwards to the blocks I integrated, won't this affect the 'general' blocks?

  The blocks can affect others only if they are set to "Global" from the block options. Like so: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6_kPY3iArgg
