DescriptionWith Content Templater you can create predefined reusable content templates. Not only can you make complete standard page layouts, you can also use Content Templater for text snippets. So any piece of text you want to use more than once, just make a content template of it! Under the editor you will get a list of available templates. If you select a template, your predefined content will be pasted in your article or other content item. And all the options you have set in the template will automatically be set (like title, alias, publishing settings, show icons settings, etc.) Automatically load templateYou can set templates to load as default. This way, the template will be loaded when you create a new article (or other content item). You can limit templates to certain sections / categories. So you can define different default templates per category. ScreenshotsAdmin: Content Templater - items list

SpecsSpecificationsContent Templater is a Joomla extension compatible with Joomla 1.5, Joomla 1.7 and Joomla 2.5. The extension consists of:
RequirementsContent Templater will only work correctly if your setup meets these requirements:
Using PHP 5.2 (or lower)? I can not provide support for setups that do not meet the above requirements. The core Joomla files should of course not be altered in any way. InstallationThe easiest way to install/update is via the NoNumber! Extension Manager. If you have problems installing Content Templater, please try the manual installation process as described here: Otherwise, please report this on the forum or let me know via the contact form. UpdatingIf you want to update to the latest version, you do not have to uninstall first. The easiest way to install/update is via the NoNumber! Extension Manager. You can also update simply by installing the package via the Joomla core installation process. DowngradingIf for some reason you need to downgrade, it is best to uninstall the extension first. Also, you will have to uninstall the NoNumber! Framework plugin (system) (and the NoNumber Elements plugin if you have it installed). After that you can simply install the older version zip file. Please note that I cannot not provide support on older versions! Open Source LicenseContent Templater is an Open Source Joomla extension. It is in compliance with the GNU/GPL license: Joomla is also Open Source.

However, if you use my extensions on websites that you make money from, I would appreciate it if you purchase a License Code. Note: If you don't want to pay for the License Code and want to continue to use the extension for free, please do. You will just have to ignore the license message in the administrator. Note: If you have donated before and feel you should get some reduction on the price, please contact me about it... we'll sort it out :)
Here you can see the difference between the use of the extensions without and with Commercial License Code.
