# Manage Templates

The **Templates** feature provides tools to help you manage the templates you've created. You can update your templates to reflect new changes, modify details, or delete templates you no longer need. Here's a guide to managing your templates effectively:

## **Access Your Templates** [Community Profile](/user-guide/templates/community-profile.md)

You can access and manage your personal templates through your **Community Profile**, the **\[My Templates]** button, or directly from your template cards.

* **Via Community Profile:** Click the \[Avatar] button at the top right of the Dashboard, then select the \[Community Profile] button.
* **Via My Templates Button:** Click the \[My Templates] button located at the top of the Template List page for instant access to your work.
* **Via Template Card:** Click on your profile information displayed within any of your template cards in the list.

If there are containers that failed to create, your Profile page will contain the failed templates.

## Check the comments on your template

If you click on your specific template, you can see comments left by other users. Check out the comments and exchange opinions with various users.

## **Editing a Template**

Go to your specific template and click the **\[Edit]** button.

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

### **Check your selected Container**

Make sure the selected container is the one you selected when creating the template.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### **Edit Details**

Update template information such as:

* **Template name**\
  Ensure it accurately reflects the template's purpose.
* **Description**\
  Add or revise details to clarify its features and use cases.
* **Stack**\
  If there is a stack missing when creating it, add it.
* **Recommended Performance**\
  If you want to change the recommended container performance, change it.
  {% endstep %}

{% step %}

### **Save Changes**

Once you've finished editing the template, click the **\[Edit]** button to save your changes.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

{% hint style="info" %}
You can **only modify the information and content** of the template. 

If you want to change the container, we recommend **creating a new template.**
{% endhint %}

## **Deleting a Template**

Deleting a template removes it permanently from the Templates page. This will not affect containers that have already been created from your template by other users, but the template will no longer be available for new usage.

Make sure to confirm before deleting to avoid accidental loss. 

* **Delete from Template card**\
  Click the **\[Trash]** button(![](/files/6lPmVYnlTzo87ghygulk)) in your Template card on the Dashboard page or the Profile page.
* **Go to your specific Templates and delete**\
  Click the **\[Delete]** button located at the top right of your specific Template page.

Confirm the deletion in the pop-up window.

By effectively managing your templates, you ensure they remain up-to-date and valuable to the community. Keep your templates organized and optimized for maximum impact.
