Templates Help Screens

From Joomla! Documentation

The Template Manager is where you assign a default Joomla! Template to your Joomla! website. You can also edit and preview Templates here.

In Joomla!, the visual layout of both the Frontend and Backend of your site is controlled by the Template. Templates are extensions that contain layout and style information that tells Joomla! exactly how to draw each page of your site.

When you first install Joomla!, one Backend Template, see Administrator, and two Frontend templates are included. Other Templates can be installed from third-party developers as Extensions.

If you want to use the same Template for all of the pages on your site, you just assign one Template as the Default Template. You can also assign different Templates to different pages.
