New Page Templates
VoodooPad automatically creates all new pages to read "Describe <the name of the page> here". You can change this either through New Page Preference or New Page Template.
New Page Preference
Navigate to VoodooPad ▸ Preferences ▸ General and locate "New Page Text". Modifying this will change what the default text is for each page. For a complete list of all the variables you can use, see below. You are a bit limited with this method however. You are not able to import pictures and it can be hard to control the text in this little box. If this is a problem for you, check out the next section.
New Page Template
Create a page named "NewPageTemplate" and the new page will come up with the content "Describe $title$ here". This new page now represents a template for your document when making new pages. Whenever you make changes to this page, all new pages will reflect those changes.
Try this out to test it:
- Select the text "Describe" and bold it.
- Type "$date$" at the end.
- Now make a new page.
- The new page created will have "Describe" in bold and will also have the current date.
What are some good uses for this?
- Making a default footer or header with links to new pages- a sort of built in navigation system.
- Setting a default background that might be easier on your eyes.
Note: Creating a "NewPageTemplate" page in your document will override the setting you have in the preferences.
