Edit from the Page Editor

You can edit the template directly from the page editor, but this feature is limited to Page and custom templates; it does not apply to basic templates like Home, Search, or 404.

1. Access the Pages dashboard.

2. Click on the page you wish to edit to open the page editor.

3. In the right sidebar, click on the Page tab, then select Template.

4. A popup will appear; choose the Edit Template option.

5. The template editor will open, allowing you to modify the template.

Note: Changes made to the template will be automatically applied to all pages that use that template.
