LogSeq Templates

Templates in LogSeq are reusable block structures that can include dynamic variables. They are defined as blocks with the template property and inserted via the /Template slash command.

Defining Templates

Method 1: Right-Click Menu

1. Create a block with desired content (including child blocks)
2. Right-click the block's bullet point
3. Select "Make Template"
4. Enter a template name and click Submit

Method 2: Manual Property

Add the template property directly:

- My Template Name
  template:: my-template
  template-including-parent:: false
  - First child block
  - Second child block
    - Nested content

Template Properties

Property	Values	Description
template	String	Name of the template (used for lookup)
template-including-parent	true / false	Whether to include the parent block when inserting

When template-including-parent:: false (recommended for most cases), only the child blocks are inserted. When true or omitted, the parent block and all children are inserted.
