How to Merge or Combine Templates


There may be times when you have multiple templates you wish to consolidate down and merge into one. This can easily be done directly from your post library.

Start by creating a library folder to hold the posts.

Creating a folder in your library:


From your SocialGlow menu, click Post library, then click the Create New Library button near the top of the page.



Name your new Library and click Create and Go to Library. It will now be accessible from the menu and you’re ready to add posts.



How to add the template posts to your library:

Now that you've created a library, you can add in posts from the template you wish to merge.

From your SocialGlow menu, click Templates.
Under the Actions column, click the Copy to Library icon.



From the dropdown box provided, select the library you want to copy your template posts to. Click Copy.



All posts in that template will immediately be copied to the library you had selected.

Adding your Library posts to a template


Now you are able to move any library posts to the template of your choice.

From the SocialGlow dashboard, click Post library.
Click the name of the library that has the posts you want to move.
On this page, check the box in the top corner of any posts you want to add to a template.
Select the Day (not date) and Time for each post.



Select Add to Template button from the bottom taskbar. Do not move on to the next page of posts before clicking Add to Template, or they will not be added.
From the dropdown box provided, select the name of the template you want to move and click Copy.



All selected posts will be copied to the template you had selected.
