Templates for Hives
Whether for documentation purposes or creating wiki-like articles, The Hives feature is a powerful tool for your portal. However, if you need to create multiple hives in a similar format, this task can take more time than you anticipated.
The templates function on Hives eliminates repetitive work and allows you to implement a previously created template into a new Hive, saving a lot of time and effort.
This article explains how to use the templates function.
