• Web UI: Import the template via the RAW mode of the new template page (recommended)
• Plugin bundle: copy the whole directory into your plugin’s templates/.

3. Assign to your service

• Easy mode UI: select the template.
• Or set USE_TEMPLATE= for the service.

4. Customize the essentials

• SERVER_NAME, REVERSE_PROXY_HOST, upload size, rate limits, CRS plugins, etc.

5. Validate quickly
