How to use a community template with an existing Webflow project

If you want to add one of our templates to an existing Webflow project, the process is a bit more complex since many fields in our templates are pre-connected to fields.

The basic process is to clone the 'Unbinded' version of whichever template you would like to use from our template library, paste all of the components and code snippets from the template into your existing project, create a CMS collection with identical structure and field names to the template, and go through Supersparks' template installation for the existing project.
