Prevent an editable region from passing through to a nested template

In nested templates, pass-through editable regions have a blue border. You can insert template markup inside an editable region so that it won’t pass through as an editable region in documents based on the nested template. Such regions have an orange border instead of a blue border.

  1. In Code view, locate the editable region you want to prevent from passing through.

    Editable regions are defined by template comment tags.

  2. Add the following code to the editable region code:
    @@("")@@

    This template code can be placed anywhere within the <!-- InstanceBeginEditable --><!-- InstanceEndEditable --> tags that surround the editable region. For example:

    <!-- InstanceBeginEditable name="EditRegion1" --> 
    <p>@@("")@@ Editable 1 </p> 
    <!-- InstanceEndEditable -->
