Creating a Template based on a Custom Base Template

This option allows a user to create a template based on an already created customised base template.

To create the template:

• Provide a unique name for the template.
• Select the "This template uses the default base template" radio button.
• Click on the "browse" button.

•  Select a base template from the drop down and click OK.

Important Notes:

• This drop down list will show all base templates from the sites Template Gallery.
• No templates listed in the drop down means that there are no custom base templates that have been created.

• Once the file is loaded, click OK to create the file.

SharePoint will redirect the user back to the repository with the template checked out to them.
