Change a Space template into a Global template?

[Matt Reynolds]

Hi All,

I'm running Confluence 5.4.4 and I'm trying to figure out if there's a way to convert a template someone has created in a Space into a Global template.

I found this old thread with someone asking the same question: https://answers.atlassian.com/questions/157549 and the reply has a link about importing templates. However that page is talking about installing template bundles from the marketplace.

Does anyone know if it's possible to do this?

Thanks!

Matt

Hi Matt,

What I did was to simply use the Confluence Source Editor (https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/com.atlassian.confluence.plugins.editor.confluence-source-editor if you don't have it installed), and just copied and pasted the code of the space template into a new global template (note: you have to save the page once before the source editor appears).  Maybe that will work for you?
