h2. Form templates
There are two types of form templates:
* Templates we¿ve created for you 
* Templates you publish yourself.  

h3. Publishing Your Own Templates 
* You can make any of your existing forms into a template that you can then use as a 
starting point when creating a different form. 

* The forms you publish will be available to all users on www.frevvo.com.

* From the Forms home page, click the !Publish.jpg|border=1! icon next to the name of the form you wish to make a template.

* When you click the !Publish.jpg|border=1!, you¿ll see the Publish Template page. It has three fields:

    *# Template Name ¿ This defaults to the name of your form. You can keep this name or overlay it with a different one.
    *# Tags ¿ In this field type at least one tag that will help you quickly find your template. Type as many tags as you like; if you type more than one, separate them with a comma. Your tag may be more than one word.
    *# Description ¿ This defaults to the form¿s description. Keep this description or overlay it with a different one. 

* Click Submit to publish your template or click Reset to clear the three fields and start over. 

* If you don¿t want to publish your template, click the X to close the form. 

* After you publish a template, you and all other logged-in frevvo users may use it. 

h3. Using Your Own Template
* To use a template when creating a new form, click Templates > Forms from frevvo¿s main menu. 
* You¿ll see the tags you created when you published your templates. Click any tag to display a list of matching templates.

* After the list of matching templates is displayed, you can:
    # Test the template by clicking (the Try icon)¿ the template displays as a fully functional form so you can enter and validate data before deciding whether you want to use it.
    # Use the template in a new form by clicking (the Add icon). Once you¿ve used it to create your form, you can customize your form without ever affecting the template.
    # Email the template by clicking (the EMail icon).  The email message includes a link to the template, which the recipient can view and test. 

* If you choose to add the template, you¿ll be walked through a wizard that allows you to make minor modifications before your new form is launched.

h2. Using frevvo¿s Form Templates
* To use one of the templates that come with frevvo, click New to create your new form and choose the template name from the dropdown list. 
* You also can access these templates by choosing Templates -> Form Templates from the top menu.
