Hi Guys!
Just getting a chance to play with the latest version of Enfold. When an element is saved as a template, is it then possible to go back and make changes to it and have those changes picked up where ever that templated element is used???
Thanks!
Scott
January 24, 2016 at 10:24 pm #570926Hi scotthco!
You will have to edit the page where you use it and after replace the template – resave.
Let me know if you have any more questions, I will be happy to help further!Best regards,
BasilisJanuary 25, 2016 at 11:43 am #571243Hi Basilis,
Do you mean to resave the template (i can´t find the way to do it) or the whole page (i´ve tried with no changes)?
Thanks,
MiguelJanuary 26, 2016 at 2:01 am #571770I was going to ask something similar. Does that mean we have to go to the page on which we originally created the element template, adjust the element there, then save the page and do another “save as template” for the element giving the template the same name?
Will this overwrite the last saved version of the element template, and will the changes be picked up on any pages where that element template is used?
Thanks!
January 27, 2016 at 1:48 pm #572852Hi!
make your changes, then delete your previous template, then save your changed one.

AndyApril 27, 2017 at 5:22 pm #784115Hi Andy, I tried your suggestion (make changes, delete…., save…) but it does not reflect my changes globally? Ie: I have logo slider on 7 pages… all the same logos, one did not have a link so I added the link. Only the one page I changed it on has linked image I changed. Do I have to individually replace the element on each page?
Thanks.
April 28, 2017 at 7:03 am #784312Hi,
We`ll investigate it better, for now, replace it individually on each page.
Best regards,
John TorvikMay 26, 2017 at 2:22 am #799932Hi I was wondering if there was an update on this? This would be SUPER useful, maybe you can add a item to the left menu (custom post type maybe?) called “Templates” (or “Snippets” or something) and there list all the templates created like pages or posts, then you can edit each individually. This would be really cool.
May 26, 2017 at 6:44 am #799997Hi,
Thanks for the feedback, I agree that is would be handy. We’ll have a look at implementing functionality like that in a future release. If you want to submit a feature request for it then you can do so here: https://kriesi.at/support/enfold-feature-requests/
Best regards,
RikardMay 26, 2017 at 5:46 pm #800283Will do! thanks.
June 24, 2017 at 4:18 am #812373This may be a dumb question, but is it possible to search through feature requests in order to find any related to ‘templates? I’m just seeing a full list with pagination options. If the above has been raised as a feature request I’d like to up-vote it, otherwise I’ll submit it as a new feature request.
I find the template option useful up to a point – and I’m really grateful that it’s there in the first place. It would be a more powerful option if it were possible to create ‘global’ template elements that can be edited in one place and the changes propagated to all pages in which that element is used. I have a use case where I want to create staff profiles for a client of mine, and they want subsets of their staff to show up in various services pages. Staff information does not all come at once, and it changes from time to time so I want to avoid having to change every instance where the staff profile appears. I’m not sure I have a way around this other than some custom coding or adding another plugin.
Many thanks

John TorvikJanuary 8, 2018 at 9:56 pm #894936Any update to this request?
January 9, 2018 at 6:42 am #895110Hi Webber,
No development on this has been done so far unfortunately.
Best regards,
RikardMay 4, 2018 at 4:46 pm #951765Still no update to this request?
May 5, 2018 at 6:27 am #952023Hi there,
I would really love to see this feature too, in some future versions of Enfold!
Hence I was looking for ‘upvoting’ this feature request on the link https://kriesi.at/support/enfold-feature-requests/
But I can’t find it there. Was it removed?
@Kahman: I understand you placed a feature request on the respective feature request page, as advised by Rikard, correct? If not, then I will do it. Please either of you, kindly let me know.Thanks,
NMay 7, 2018 at 9:35 pm #952892Hi,
Go ahead and add it if you miss it!
Even if it is a second time, we are here to review every aspect!Best regards,
BasilisJune 5, 2018 at 11:06 am #967133Hi,
I agree, it’s very helpful to be able tp update templates at once.
Maybe they can be saved in advance styling separately according to name of the template and give the option to at least change the css for them at once.Thanks,
MohammadJune 6, 2018 at 8:32 pm #968047Hi,
A global template is a nice idea, we will make sure our developers work it out.
Best regards,
BasilisJune 26, 2018 at 12:01 pm #977883Also want this e.g. if you have a testimonials template set up and you add one to it, for that to appear on every page you’ve got your testimonials. Can it do that?
July 2, 2018 at 9:08 pm #980276Hi,
Global templates are not ready yet – but it is something that is on our TODO list. :)
Thank you very much for the suggestion, always welcome!Best regards,
BasilisAugust 3, 2018 at 4:21 pm #993305Hi Enfold team,
The feature in question above would be an incredible addition. My team currently spends a lot of time adjusting templates that appear on multiple pages. Therefore, please add me to the list of “yes, please.”
Thanks,
Phil
August 4, 2018 at 7:11 am #993425Hi Phil,
Thanks for the input, we would really like to implement this feature but I’m still not sure if we are able to or not.
Best regards,
RikardJanuary 25, 2019 at 6:47 pm #1058859hi guys, this is a very important feature. I wish you will find a way to develope it.
since that day will arrive, is there any way to create an object that will update the site globbaly? No matter if it is required a bit of code?January 28, 2019 at 10:42 pm #1059815Hi,
Thank you so much for your feedback and more for supporting the get the feature done!
Best regards,
BasilisFebruary 5, 2019 at 7:46 pm #1063277I agree… very important feature. If I have 20 or 30 pages all using the same template it’s a huge time drain to go to each page and change it. Surely there is a way to do this.
February 7, 2019 at 7:10 am #1063870Hi bludove30,
We’ll add it to the theme once we have a solution.
Best regards,
RikardMarch 27, 2019 at 11:09 pm #1083827I have been asking for this feature since they brought out the ‘template’ functionality. Few years later still nothing. Enfold is my personal best page builder tool for many years now… BUT I see other page builders have this global edit template functionality.
My team and I are considering saying goodbye to Enfold and rather look at an alternative solution.
April 2, 2019 at 1:34 am #1085775Hi,
e. If I have 20 or 30 pages all using the same template it’s a huge time drain to go to each page
There is an element called “Page Content” in the builder, allowing you to display the content of another page. You can add that element to multiples pages and only requires you to edit a single page when update is necessary. Try to use that instead of the templates.
Best regards,
IsmaelApril 2, 2019 at 8:37 am #1085930WOW!! AWESOME!!!! How did I miss this?!
Thank you!
Loving this theme again!!
