+                <h3>How do I create a Content Template?</h3>
+                <p>Simply right-click a content node and select "Create Content Template" to create a new Content Template. Once given a name, editors can start
+                    using the Content Template as a foundation for their new page.</p>
+                <h3>How do I manage Content Templates</h3>
+                <p>You can edit and delete Content Templates from the "Content Templates" tree in the Settings section. Just expand the Document Type which the 
+                    Content Template is based on and click it to edit or delete it.</p>
