Edit custom templates in a few simple steps.

Before you begin:

Start by creating templates with brand restrictions and then follow along with these steps to edit the templates. This feature is available for Teams and Enterprise plans.

On the Adobe Express homepage, go to Your stuff. Open your custom templates saved in Files > Custom templates or in Projects.

Select the template, and then select Template options.

To move the template location, select Move and choose the desired destination. You can move or copy templates between folders within the same project or across different projects in the Projects workspace. 

You can also perform actions like Share, Rename, Duplicate, Delete, or Copy.

To make changes to the template or template settings, select Edit template.

You can now make changes to the page or the template settings.

Note

The template changes are saved upon exit, but are not visible to others unless they are published. If there are unpublished changes, the Template editor button in the header will display Unpublished changes when hovered over.

To compare the changes you've made with the published versions, select the toggle labeled Compare to published.
