Steps to Create a Custom Template in Notion.
Here, we will create a custom template in Notion by using the template button. For clear demonstration purposes, we have added a Meeting Notes template on our Notion page. Now, we are going to make a template out of the Meeting Notes template itself in Notion. To do so, user’s need to do the following:
Step 1: Before starting to create a custom template in Notion, just add any template from the template gallery and then customize the template accordingly. As mentioned above, we have selected a Meeting Notes template.
Step 2: Open a fresh new page in Notion, and give it the desired title.
Step 3: Now, type “/template” and you will be allowed to create a custom template button.
Step 4: Once you have typed the command, Notion will summon the “Configuration template button” box on the current page.
Step 5: Now, add desired name for the template button.
Step 6: Here, we will add blocks that will dublicate auto-matically whenever the button is cliked.
Step 7: Notion has set the “To-do” button by default, so tap on the six-dot menu and delete it.
Step 8: Now, from the Notion sidebar, drag the template that you have selected earlier to the template button.
Step 9: Click on the “close” button and your template button is all set to use.
Now you can use this template on any page in Notion. These templates are easy and effective to use. You could save your productive time rather than downloading a separate app that will consume space on your device for the same use.
Likewise, you can create your own multiple templates and implant them on the Notion page wherever you go. There is a number of templates available in the Notion template gallery, my personal favorite templates are habit tracker, finance tracker, and vocabulary template because they are useful and very convenient to use.
How To Edit Or Delete Template Button
Now you know how to create a custom template, but if you wish to edit or delete the template, Notion will allow you to do so. Just click on the six-dot menu, a list of options will pop up, and just delete the template button.
Mind you, if you choose to click delete, it will only remove the template button without affecting the template that you have created earlier.
Alternately, just place the cursor on the template and click on the three-dot located at the end of the template button to summon the options list. You can rename, delete, or edit the template accordingly.
Conclusion
Honestly, I am using the Life Wiki template in Notion. It not only helps me to organize my work but also somehow motivates me to focus on the schedule that I have created on the template. I have seen people using the habit tracker template to break the point of bad habits. Notion is free to use individually so use the tool on the optimum level as there are no limitations while creating the content.
