In the previous tutorial we looked at setting up templates and layouts to a site view. Loaded inside the site view is 'preacherpanel', 'preachersmall','preacherbox'. If you go to Templates, you may see how this works.

Click on new to start with a new template. (An old one may be copied by selecting the template you would like to copy.) Click on batch. There is a copy feature; click process, and it will be copied.

If PHP is preferred, go into the PHP and out again. Text placeholders may be added helping us to ensure the text itself is translatable. You can use normal English text. (See video.)

Component Builder will add these strings to the language file for you. You don't need to be concerned; it only does the British English language file. If you need to add more languages, check documentation of adding languages to a third-party extension and do the same implementation. [00:01:44](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=khxKeeubhiY&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h01m44s) At Layouts Code Snippets you can add layouts to the template by using any of the snippets. You can add other templates to it, and you can use templates inside of templates as well as layouts. The behavior is more or less the same as in site view.
