Step 2

Customizing Your New Page Template

On the next page, you're able to customize your new page template. The page template has been created, but it doesn't have any content yet, so let's add some.

The first thing we recommend you do is to hide any content created in the classic editor by clicking the eye icon next to Page in the menu on the left-hand side of the screen.
