+# Using Templates to Display Forms and Lists
+
+After creating data definitions and lists, you can control how the form appears
+to your users, and how the resulting list of records is displayed. You do this
+by creating templates for each view (form view and record display view) and
+selecting them in the DDL Display portlet. For example, you might need to create 
+a form with a subset of a data definition's fields. Rather than creating a new 
+definition, you can create a template that displays only the fields you want 
+from the existing definition. You could also use a template to arrange fields 
+differently, and/or with different labels and configuration options. 
+
+Data definitions can have as many form and display templates as you care to
+create (or none, if you're satisfied with the default templates). You then 
+choose a list's template in the Dynamic Data Lists Display widget. 
+
+## Managing Display and Form Templates
+
+Since Display and Form Templates correspond to a particular data definition, 
+they're accessed from the Data Definitions screen of the Dynamic Data Lists app 
+in Site Administration. See the 
+[Creating Data Definitions article](liferay.com) 
+for instructions on accessing this screen. 
+
+The Data Definitions screen lists each definition in a table. To start working 
+with a definition's templates, click the definition's Actions button 
+(![Actions](../../../images/icon-actions.png)) 
+and select *Manage Templates*. This opens a screen that lists the definition's 
+templates. You can edit, copy, delete, or configure permissions for a 
+definition via its Actions button 
+(![Actions](../../../images/icon-actions.png)).

+# Creating Form Templates
+
+Form templates let you control how the data entry form appears for a data 
+definition. Follow these steps to create a form template for a definition: 
+
+1.  Open the Menu 
+    (![Menu](../../../images/icon-menu.png)) 
+    and expand your site's menu (the Site Administration menu). Then select 
+    *Content* → *Dynamic Data Lists*. This opens the Dynamic Data Lists 
+    screen. A table lists any existing dynamic data lists. 
+
+2.  Click the *Options* button at the top-right 
+    (![Options](../../../images/icon-options.png)) 
+    and select *Manage Data Definitions*. The Data Definitions screen appears. A 
+    table lists any existing data definitions. 
+
+3.  Click the definition's *Actions* button 
+    (![Options](../../../images/icon-options.png)) 
+    and select *Manage Templates*. This opens a screen that lists the 
+    definition's templates. 
+
+4.  Click the *Add* button 
+    (![Add](../../../images/icon-add.png)) 
+    and select *Add Form Template*. This presents the same kind of graphical, 
+    drag-and-drop interface used to 
+    [create definitions](liferay.com). 
+
+5.  Give your template a name, then expand the *Details* section and give it a 
+    description. You can also use the *Mode* selector to select which mode the 
+    template applies to (*Create* or *Edit*). 
+
+6.  Scroll down to the graphical designer in the *View* tab, and make your 
+    desired changes. For example, you can move or delete fields, change field   
+    labels, and more. 
+
+7.  Click *Save* when you're finished. 
+
+Alternatively, you can create form templates from the Dynamic Data Lists Display 
+widget: 
+
+1.  Follow the instructions in the 
+    [Creating Data Lists article](liferay.com) 
+    for adding and configuring the widget in a site page. Make sure to configure 
+    the widget to show the list whose definition you want to create a template 
+    for. 
+
+2.  Click the widget's *Add Form Template* button. This opens the same form as 
+    above for creating a form template for the list's definition.

+# Creating Display Templates
+
+For every data definition, you can create as many displays as you need. If 
+you've created a form template that doesn't show all the fields of a particular
+data definition, you probably don't want to display those fields in the list, 
+either. 
+
++$$$
+
+**Note:** If you're familiar with 
+[web content templates](/discover/portal/-/knowledge_base/7-1/designing-web-content-with-templates), 
+display templates customize the display of a list in the same way. Display 
+templates can be written in FreeMarker or Velocity, pulling data from the data 
+definition in the same way that web content templates pull data from their 
+structures. Also similar to web content templates, display templates can be 
+embedded in other display templates. This allows for reusable code, JS library 
+imports, or macros which will be imported by Velocity or FreeMarker templates in 
+the system. Embedding display templates provides a more efficient process when 
+you have a multitude of similar data definitions. Just import an embedded 
+display template and work off of it for your new display template. 
+
+$$$
+
+As with 
+[form templates](liferay.com), 
+you can create display templates from the Dynamic Data Lists app in Site 
+Administration, or the Dynamic Data Lists Display widget. 
+
+Follow these steps to create a display template from Site Administration: 
+
+1.  Open the Menu 
+    (![Menu](../../../images/icon-menu.png)) 
+    and expand your site's menu (the Site Administration menu). Then select 
+    *Content* → *Dynamic Data Lists*. This opens the Dynamic Data Lists 
+    screen. A table lists any existing dynamic data lists. 
+
+2.  Click the *Options* button at the top-right 
+    (![Options](../../../images/icon-options.png)) 
+    and select *Manage Data Definitions*. The Data Definitions screen appears. A 
+    table lists any existing data definitions. 
+
+3.  Click the definition's *Actions* button 
+    (![Options](../../../images/icon-options.png)) 
+    and select *Manage Templates*. This opens a screen that lists the 
+    definition's templates. 
+
+4.  Click the *Add* button 
+    (![Add](../../../images/icon-add.png)) 
+    and select *Add Display Template*. This opens the New Template form. 
+
+5.  Give the template a name, then expand the *Details* section of the form and 
+    give it a description. Also in the details section of the form, select the 
+    templating language to use from the *Language* selector. You can choose 
+    [FreeMarker](https://freemarker.apache.org/index.html), 
+    or 
+    [Velocity](https://velocity.apache.org/). 
+
+6.  In the *Script* section of the form, create your template in the editor 
+    using the templating language you chose in the previous step. The palette to 
+    the left of the editor contains common variables. Click a variable to insert 
+    it in the editor. Another useful tool in the editor is the autocomplete 
+    feature. In a FreeMarker template, you can invoke it by typing `${`, which 
+    opens a drop-down menu of common variables. Select a variable to insert it 
+    in the editor. Alternatively, you can upload a complete script file via the 
+    *Browse* button below the editor. 
+
+7.  Click *Save* when you're done creating the template. 
+
+![Figure 1: Create your display template in the editor.](../../../images/ddl-template-editor.png)
+
+Alternatively, you can use the Dynamic Data Lists Display widget to create 
+display templates: 
+
+1.  Follow the instructions in the 
+    [Creating Data Lists article](liferay.com) 
+    for adding and configuring the widget in a site page. Make sure to configure 
+    the widget to show the list whose definition you want to create a template 
+    for. 
+
+2.  Click the widget's *Add Display Template* button. This opens the same form 
+    as above for creating a display template for the list's definition.

+<!-- 
+Per Russ, include a more detailed example of creating a template, when possible. 
+See example in the analogous 7.0.x article, and figure out which code isn't 
+specific to the cross-article Lunar Resort example in those docs.
