Many of our customers asked if we could add a template feature they could use when creating new accounts. That's a great idea, so we did it. Thanks for the suggestion. There are two parts to this feature: (1) configure an account to be a template and (2) use that template when creating your new account(s).
 

Let’s look at the two steps needed when using the Template feature.

1. Configure an Account to be a Template


You can make any of your accounts a template. Simply log into Streamer™ using that account and in the command bar type /maketemplate yes. To undo that setting, type /maketemplate no.


2. Using a Template Account

1. Log into the account you want to modify. This may be a brand new account you have just created or an existing account you have been using for a while. 
2. Jump into any room and type /cloneuser [attribute] @user where attribute is the part of the template you want to use and user is the name of the template account. Currently, you can only access a template's list of Phrases, so you need to use phrases as the attribute. We will be adding additional options soon.

Here Are Some Examples of Using the Template Feature

1. /maketemplate yes.  This makes the account that you are currently using accessible by others as a template.
2. /cloneuser phrases @Avanti-Template:  This adds all the phrases in the Avanti-Template user account to the account you are currently using.
3. /cloneuser phrases @Template-Student:  This adds all the phrases in Streamer's student template to the account you are currently using.
4. /cloneuser phrases @Template-Spanish:  Adds a set of general phrases that are all in the Spanish language.

Additional Notes

• The /cloneuser phrases @user command does not overwrite phrases that already exist in the account, Instead, it adds all the new phrases from the template to any existing phrases.
• You can use multiple template accounts to configure your new accounts - perhaps one template with core phrases you want for every account and then other templates for specific situations. If, for example, you have a student that is non-verbal, you can use both the @Template-Student and @Template-SpeechGeneration templates to configure the student's account.
• Note that we have also created templates for languages other than English. 
• If the current account already has a phrase with the same title but different contents, then a number will be automatically placed after the title, such as Phrase (1). This way the user can tell that these are two separate phrases.
