Organize with Template Groups

Group templates by using a common prefix(group name), followed by a dot in a template title. This keeps your templates well organized and easy to find.

For example, templates with the titles "personal.greeting" and "personal.meeting" are grouped into the "personal" group.

Please note: groups are always one level deep, even if templates have multiple common naming parts.

Extension Permissions

Templify Extension requests permissions only when absolutely necessary, such as for inserting a message on a webpage or using data from the webpage in a template. This granular approach gives you full control over where the extension operates and what access it has.

Permissions Explained:

• Read and change your data on <website url>. This permission is required for the extension to interact with the website, like inserting a template or retrieving data for template placeholders.
• Tabs: Read your browsing history. This permission is only used to retrieve the active tab’s URL, which is needed to request access to the website as explained above.

Template Placeholders

Template placeholders are special markers that are replaced with dynamic content when a template is applied. Placeholder content is either resolved by the extension (for system placeholders) or manually entered by the user (in this case, the optional parameter is used as the default value)

To define a placeholder in your template source, use double curly braces, followed by a name and an optional parameter value after a colon.

For example, a template source with "amount" and "code" placeholders to send coupon details might look like:

Your coupon code for ${{amount:30}} discount is {{code:DISC30}}

Tip: Create template placeholders that perfectly fit your custom needs and scenarios!

System Placeholders

System placeholders execute system functions and return the result as the placeholder's value. For example, using the "text" system placeholder to retrieve a user's name from a webpage:

List of system placeholders:

• {{text:selector}} – returns the text value of a webpage element. The placeholder paramater is used as a webpage element selector (either a CSS selector or XPath expression). When used without a selector parameter, the value of the active element on the page is returned.

Tip: Use system placeholders to interact with webpage data, make templates dynamic and automate messaging.

Template Compositions

Template placeholders can also be used to create template compositions.

To reference a template, use its name as a placeholder.

For example, let's assume you've already created a template named "store.contacts" which contains store contact information. You can now reuse this template as follows:

Please let us know if you need further assistance.
Thank you for choosing our store.
{{store.contacts}}

Each included template follows Smart Syntax rules, meaning you can use placeholders without limits and create powerful and functional template compositions.

Please note: Any circular template reference (templateA > templateN > templateA) will be resolved to an empty string.

AI Plugin

Use the "ai" plugin name in the template title to process it with the AI Plugin. Examples of the most commonly used templates with the AI plugin:

Tip: Combine Smart Syntax with prompts of your choice to build powerful AI Assistant and use it on any website 🚀
