Assign Templates to Entries

Use the Builder Layout field to connect a Craft entry to a Builder template.

Add the field

1. Go to Settings → Fields in Craft.
2. Create a new field of type Builder Layout.
3. Add the field to the entry type(s) that should use Builder templates.

If you used Create homepage, Builder may already have created and assigned this field for the homepage Single.

Select a template on an entry

1. Edit an entry.
2. Find the Builder Layout field.
3. Choose a template from the dropdown (Page templates).
4. Save the entry.

You can also open or create templates from links provided in the field UI when available (Open visual editor / Create new template).

Front-end output

Your front-end Twig should render the Builder field (or layout) using Builder’s Twig helpers, for example via `craft.builder` render methods configured in your project templates.

If homepage setup was used, the site root is already wired to render the assigned Builder template.

Tips

- Create the Page template first, then assign it on the entry.
- Use one Builder Layout field per entry type unless you have a specific multi-layout design.
- Disabled templates may not appear as expected — keep production templates Enabled.
