What are Templates?

Templates define the core structure and behavior of a Helper. When Peanuts creates a Helper, it chooses the best template based on your description.

Choosing a Template

Peanuts automatically selects the best template, but you can change it:
  1. Open Helper → Settings
  2. Tap Change Template
  3. Select new template
  4. Fields will be remapped where possible
Changing templates may cause some data to be hidden (not deleted). Fields that don’t map to the new template won’t display until you switch back.
