How to Make a SharePoint Template With FrontPage

Microsoft SharePoint allows a company to quickly set up an Intranet, which is a collection of web sites that have features such as news pages, tasks lists, and document libraries. When a SharePoint site is created it can be saved as a template so that additional sites can be created based on the same template. The template can be created using Microsoft's Frontpage application.

Things You'll Need

• SharePoint server
• Frontpage

Instructions

1. Browse to the SharePoint web site that you want to create a template from.

2. Click "Site Actions," then "Site Settings."

3. Click "Save site as template." The Frontpage application will automatically open and a copy of the SharePoint site will be shown.

4. Click "File," then "Save as template." Choose a location for the template file and type in a filename. Click "OK" to create the SharePoint template.

5. Click "File," then "Close" to exit the Frontpage application once the template is created.
