A [[TWikiSite]] is divided into webs; each one represents one subject, one area of collaboration. Administrators can add/rename/delete webs.

+
+There are two methods used to create a new web. First you can use a specially designed [[TemplateWeb]]. This is an invisible web that begins with an underscore "\_" character. All topics in the \_default template web will be copied into your new web.
+
+The second method is to use an existing web as a template web. This may be useful if you already have a web that you like to use as a starting point. Only topics that have names beginning with **Web...** (like "WebHome", "WebNotify", etc.) are copied.
+
+In either case you will want to be sure to verify that your new web has all the custom modifications that you desire.

+**Note:** Attachments will NOT get copied over along with their topics. This will be a feature added for the TWiki:Codev/CairoRelease.
+
+**Note:** This script does not yet edit the [[TWiki.TWikiPreferences|TWiki/TWikiPreferences]] file to update the `WIKIWEBLIST`. This must be done by hand.
+
+The manage script while creating the new web will update the following variables in the [[WebPreferences]]: `WEBBGCOLOR`, `SITEMAPLIST`, `SITEMAPWHAT`, `SITEMAPUSETO` and `NOSEARCHALL`. These variables are now used to dynamically generate the [[SiteMap]].
+
## <a name="Renaming or Deleting a Web"></a> Renaming or Deleting a Web
Renaming or deleting a web requires direct access to the installation files on the host server. There are currently no browser-based equivalents of the Rename/move/delete topic tools for working with webs.
-**NOTE:** If you plan to rename the %WIKITOOLNAME%.Main web, remember that TWiki stores user and group topics in <code>%MAINWEB%</code>, default named `Main`. That means, every [[WikiName]] signature - `Main.SomeUserName` - points to it and would need updating (unless the variable, `%MAINWEB%.SomeUserName`, is used throughout).
+**NOTE:** If you plan to rename the %WIKITOOLNAME%.Main web, remember that TWiki stores user and group topics in `%MAINWEB%`, default named `Main`. That means, every [[WikiName]] signature - `Main.SomeUserName` - points to it and would need updating (unless the variable, `%MAINWEB%.SomeUserName`, is used throughout).
1. Prepare your site: Search each web for links to the target web, searching topic text for `Oldwebname.`, including the dot so you'll find references like `Oldwebname.SomeTopic`.
- Make changes as required, to `Newwebname.SomeTopic` or better yet, to `%MAINWEB%.SomeTopic`.
5. Go to `twiki/templates` and rename or remove the web directory if present.
6. Go to `twiki/pub` and rename or remove the web directory if present.

+## <a name="Purpose"></a> Purpose
+
+Template webs were created to act as templates in creating webs. It is now possible to creation webs via the [[ManagingWebs]] topic. In the not so distant past TWiki webs were created by hand. The data directory contains the different webs such as **Main** and **TWiki**. A web that begins with an underscore "\_" character is considered invisible and a template. All files in the **\_default** (or any other web that begins with an underscore) template web will be copied into your new web. The **\_default** web template contains the following topics: `WebChanges, WebHome, WebIndex, WebNotify, WebPreferences, WebSearch, WebStatistics and WebTopicList.`
+
+## <a name="Customizing"></a> Customizing
+
+The web template is useful for administrators to design for creating webs of a certain type. Departmental webs can at least begin with a similar look and feel.
+
+Simply create a web with an underscore for the first character. These can be used by authorized users to create webs from this template.
