In order to provide a flexible, easy to use, and easy to integrate Web interface, Freedombase uses HTML or Web templates.

A Template is a normal HTML page, containing some Freedombase tags, which allow that page to be integrated with Freedombase and therefore with the database.

Templates can be plain HTML, or can contain virtually any valid HTML options, including but not limited to, scripts, style sheets, frames and more.

Templates can be edited online through the Template page (1), or in any HTML editor. (It is, however, recommended that a style sheet compatible HTML editor be used.) This allows Web pages to be professionally created and maintained, and still integrated with Freedombase and the database with ease.

Existing pages can be edited online by entering the file name (2), or via a Search or View All.

New pages can be created by entering the new file name (2) and the HTML; the data within the other fields will be filled in automatically when the template is saved or rebuilt.
