Sorry if this has been asked I wasn't able to find anything during my search.

I use JCE to make frequent posts to a calendar. The entries generally follow a set pattern.
I would like to make a html or xml template that I could select from a dropdown or a ribbon icon in the editor when making this type of post then I could just fill in the info that is needed and keeping the same basic style for all my entries.
Is this something that I can achieve with JCE?

TIA

Found the solution. Ryan had posted a video of how to achieve this. Worked like a charm.
Would love to see a drop down menu item similar to Styles added that would make it easier for the users to see and find the templates from a predefined folder.

Apologies for the delay in my reply.

This is automatic if you have the Template Manager button in the editor toolbar and the Template List option in the Template Manager parameters set to Yes. HTML etc. files in the File Directory Path for the Template Manager will be shown in the list automatically, and you can also sepcify other files or HTML snippets to insert.

Just because you're not paranoid doesn't mean everybody isn't out to get you.
