Best Practices
-
KB Admins, we recommend that Templates be saved to the status of In Progress. Should you need to save the Template as an Active document, set the Search Priority flag to "Exclude from Search". This way, a user will not "discover" the template while searching on the Live Site.
The image below shows the document edit screen for DocID 79733 in Edit mode. the Search Priority is set to Exclude from Search and hihglighted by a red box.
-
Please know that updates made to a template are not updated dynamically. To make updates to documents created by a template in bulk, we recommend that the Batch Update tool be used to make those updates.
