Blueprints

Blueprints are frameworks that are used as the base of an instance.

Overview

Blueprints consist of an XML plate, which serves as the basis for the Schema structure, as well as a styles, JavaScript, and view files, and sometimes sample content.

Users can only manage Blueprints if the blueprint setting is switched on via their user account settings.

We'll review the Blueprints interface below.
