Duplicating and Editing Built-in Templates
Love a built-in template but want to make it your own? Duplicate it, customize it, and you've got a personalized template without starting from scratch.
Why Duplicate?
Built-in templates can't be edited directly — they're locked to preserve the originals. But you can duplicate any built-in template to create an editable copy.
This is the fastest way to create a custom template when you like an existing layout but want to:
- Add your business logo
- Change the background color or image
- Adjust text or fonts
- Modify photo slot positions
- Add an overlay or texture
How to Duplicate
- Go to your Templates section
- Find the built-in template you want to use as a base
- Tap the Duplicate option
- A copy is created in your custom templates
- Open the copy in the editor and start customizing

What Gets Copied?
Everything:
- Photo slot positions and sizes
- Background settings
- Text elements
- All images and graphics
- Canvas specifications (size, DPI, bleed)
You get an exact copy that you can modify freely without affecting the original.
Customization Ideas
- Add your logo — Drop your business logo in the corner
- Swap the background — Replace the default background with a client's brand colors
- Change fonts — Switch to a font that matches the event style
- Adjust spacing — Move slots around to fit your preferred layout
- Add contact details — Include your Instagram, website, or phone number
Tips
- Name your duplicates clearly — "Classic Strip - My Version" is better than "Copy of Template 3"
- Keep the original proportions — The built-in templates have well-balanced layouts. Small tweaks usually work better than major redesigns.
- Build a library — Create a few customized versions of your favorite built-in templates for different event types (weddings, corporate, parties)
