# Template library

> The Template library lets you start from a complete, ready-made site design. Learn what importing a template changes — and what it keeps.

The **Template library (مكتبة القوالب)** is a gallery of complete, ready-made site designs (**Premium Templates**). Importing one gives your whole site a new, professionally designed look in a single step — a fast way to start fresh or completely redesign.

You'll find it in your **site dashboard** under **Builder → Template library**.

<Warning>
  **Importing a template overwrites your current design.** It replaces all of your current **Templates, Headers, Footers**, and the **template-driven pages** (home, shop, cart, checkout, and account). Your **products, orders, articles, customers, and settings are not affected** — they stay exactly as they are. Because your design is replaced, import a template when you're starting out or intentionally redesigning, not for a small change.
</Warning>

## When to use it

* You're setting up your site and want a professionally designed starting point.
* You want to completely change your site's look.
* For smaller changes, edit your pages in the [Builder](/en/site/builder-overview), or adjust shared parts like your header and footer in the [Builder library](/en/site/builder-library) instead.

## Import a template

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the Template library">
    In your **site dashboard**, go to **Builder → Template library**. You'll see the available premium templates.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Preview a design">
    Browse and preview the templates to find one that fits your business.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Import it">
    Choose a template to apply it, and confirm the overwrite warning. Remember it replaces your current design — but keeps your products, orders, and content.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Make it yours">
    Open your pages in the **Builder** and replace the placeholder text and images with your own. Fine-tune your header, footer, and colors in the [Builder library](/en/site/builder-library).
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Tip>
  Import your template **before** you've built a lot of custom pages. Since importing replaces your design, it's easiest to do at the very start.

## What's replaced vs. what's kept

| Replaced by the new template                                | Kept, unchanged                          |
| ----------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------- |
| Templates, Headers, Footers                                 | Products                                 |
| Template-driven pages (home, shop, cart, checkout, account) | Orders                                   |
| Your current overall design                                 | Articles, customers, users, and settings |

## Frequently asked questions

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Will I lose my products or orders?">
    No. Importing changes your **design** only — your products, orders, articles, customers, and settings stay exactly the same.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Can I undo an import?">
    Importing replaces your current design, so treat it as a fresh start rather than a reversible change. If you've already customized your design a lot, [contact support](/en/contact-support) before importing.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="How is this different from the Builder library?">
    The **Template library** imports a whole ready-made design at once. The **[Builder library](/en/site/builder-library)** is where you then manage your own header, footer, blocks, and styles.
