How to find which template the part of your site you want to edit using MovableType

This is Goto from the web team.

MovableType, MT for short.

You may have just written an article for a while without making any changes to the design, or someone else may have customized it and
you may have been asked to edit the design even though you don't know much about it.

The target audience for this article is " people who know what part of the site they want to edit, but don't know where to actually edit it ."

So, what you should change the "template" .
MT maintains the layout of the site as a template for each part, and processes them together on the server to output HTML.

A list of templates will appear under [Design] => [Templates] on the MT management screen.
All you have to do is order it or edit it according to your own taste.

Please refer to
the official documentation
for MT tags when editing It's hard to see in black and white. I would like syntax highlighting.

This is the main topic of this article, but
if you have a lot of templates and don't know which one to use, you can use the method below to identify them.

MT is a man who puts all data into DB, so let's search from DB.

manner

select template_id, template_name from mt_template where template_text like "% {Copy and paste the source you want to edit here} %";

This will tell you the ID and name of the template or widget you want to edit. Fast and easy.
Next,
go to [Design] => [Template] on the management screen, find the template with the matching ID, and edit it.

That's it.
