Features for custom template

Question

Hi,

I am trying to create a template of a document with a lot of field but with only few answers possible each time. Currently, i use a word template with blank field, fields with a menu of 2 or 3 items and some fields with multiple choice questions (i just click on the right answer to add a stick)

It is not a problem to deal with blank field in confluence but do you know a possibility to have a menu in the template in order that the user just chooses an item between three and does not write anything ?

Thanks for your attention.

Or is-it possible to add some html code in my template like this ? And that will read as html when a user uses the template ? thanks

Thank you for your answer but it is just a part of my question. For some general fields, it is a very good solution. But my problem is also the following, the user does not know all the answers when he creates the document. So i would like to create selectable dropdown field in the document (and not just before creating it) in order that the user can save is work and continue later.

Hi Corentin,

If I understand your question correctly, you want to create a template that has a selectable dropdown field with a few choices. If I've misunderstood this, please let me know. For that requirement, you should be able to do it following these instructions:
