  1. Solution

  • The Text Template Management UI (text-template-management/text-templates) does not create new template definitions.
    It only lets you edit / localize the contents of templates that are already defined in your application.

  • To have a template show up on that page, you must first define it in code using a TemplateDefinitionProvider.
    After that, the template will appear in the UI and you can manage its content there (per tenant, per culture, etc.).

  Step‑by‑step: define a new template that appears in the UI

  1. Create a template definition provider in your domain (or application) layer:

  using Volo.Abp.TextTemplating;
  
     public class MyTemplateDefinitionProvider : TemplateDefinitionProvider
     {
         public override void Define(ITemplateDefinitionContext context)
         {
             context.Add(
                 new TemplateDefinition(
                     "MyApp.MyCustomEmail",                  // Template name (key)
                     displayName: "My Custom Email",        // What you see on the UI
                     layout: StandardEmailTemplates.Message // Optional: use standard email layout
                 )
                 .WithDefaultCulture("en")                  // Optional
             );
         }
     }
  

  2. Ensure the assembly that contains MyTemplateDefinitionProvider is loaded by an ABP module (normally it is if it’s in your main project).

  3. Run the app and navigate to
     /text-template-management/text-templates.
     You should now see “My Custom Email” in the list. From there you can:

     • Edit the template content (HTML/text),
     • Localize it per language,
     • Override it per tenant.

  Summary

  • No: You cannot create a brand‑new text template definition purely from the Text Template Management page.
  • Yes: You can create the definition in code (once), and then maintain its content entirely from the UI afterwards.

  hi

  : Is there a way to create a new text template directly from that the page?

  How do you plan to use this new text template?

  I mean, the new name is unknown/dynamic. Where do you use it?

  Thanks.
