Hi,
How do i create a template?
I have seen in some CMS that you can just add a tag such as {[content]} and the content will appear there. Is this possible?

Thanks

Just look at a premade template to learn how to do it yourself. It's really easy Toolman

They are stored in the DB, not in file form... the only ones stored in file form are the backups....

The only files stored via FTP are the CSS and image files etc...

You could use a template that is part of the distribution of Etomite Final.
Just look in Resources > Manage resources.
You can copy and paste a template in an editor to change it and then make a new template of it.
