Notion comes with a rich library of built-in templates. However, creating a custom template helps you duplicate multiple content and blocks with a single click. Thereby increasing your project’s efficiency and improving the workflow.
Notion allows you to create a custom template with the help of the template button. In this guide, we will explain how to create a template in Notion.
- Start by putting together the template, block by block, in a separate and blank section of your page. You can also use a built-in template from the library and make the necessary changes to it.
Create the content to convert it into a template. - Once you have your template put together, click on a blank line. Add the template button by left-clicking on the + symbol.
Click on the Plus icon. - Scroll down and click on Template button. Alternatively, you can add the template button by typing “/template” and pressing Enter.
Click on the Template button option. - You will be prompted with the “Configure template button” box.
Configure Template Button will popup on the page. - Under the “Button Name” section, type a relevant name.
Give a relevant name to the button. - Under the “Template” section, remove the default To-Do button by clicking on the six-dotted button and selecting Delete.
Click on the Delete option. - Inside the “Template” section, start dragging the content you want to add to your template. You can include plain text, headers, checklist, menu, bullet points, and others.
- Once you have your template put together, click on the Close button.
