Manage blueprints
Create, find, rename, and delete Visual Builder blueprints in Optimizely CMS 13. Save sections and experiences as reusable layout templates.
Blueprints are reusable layout templates that you use with Visual Builder to create content directly in the user interface (UI). You can save sections and experiences as blueprints, such as a campaign landing page, a contest entry form, a masthead or hero image, and column or grid content.
See this interactive demonstration about how to create, use, and manage blueprints.
You can find, rename, or delete blueprints in Settings > Blueprints.
Search for blueprints
Typing the (partial) name of a blueprint in the search field filters the list of blueprints to help you find the one you want. You can also use the Blueprint Type drop-down list to filter blueprints.
