Lock a Header and Footer Template from Editing

As an administrator or an author, lock a header and footer template to restrict other users from editing its contents and formatting settings. This prevents inconsistencies and unexpected changes to your template.

To lock a header and footer template from editing:

  1. For a given project, open the Format page for headers & footers.
  2. On the Headers & Footers tab of the Format page, hover over a header and footer template that you want to lock.
    Note: If you are an author, you can only lock templates that you created.
  3. On the header and footer template, click .
    The template now displays a red lock icon (). Other users can no longer modify the contents and formatting of the template.
