Creating an authoring template

Create an authoring template to design a content item form and determine what elements can be included in the form.

1. Defining authoring template details
   You define identification and access control information for the authoring template in the "Authoring Template Setting" view. These are the identification and access control information of the authoring template itself, not the default identification and access control settings for content items based on an authoring template.
2. Specifying content form properties
   Specify the characteristics of the content form generated from the authoring template. This can include how sections are displayed, the sites and site areas where content can be saved, and customized help text for the content form.
3. Specifying default content settings
   You define the default settings for content items in the "Default Content Settings" view of the authoring template form.
