  1. In the dashboard, open Text templates and click New text template.
  2. Enter a Title and write the Text. Block inserts ready-made pieces of text.
  3. Choose the Usage: Both, For listings or For messages.
  4. Optional: Use as default, so it is suggested first.

To edit, click a template and keep your changes with Save. You bring in templates from Version 5 with Import from Version 5.

More: limits and defaults
  • Up to 500 templates.
  • There is one default each for listing descriptions and for messages.
  • Without a title, the template gets the block’s name. Emoji inserts symbols.
  • Deleted templates: text you have already inserted is kept.
  • Import from Version 5 appears as long as you have no text templates yet and leads to Settings › Data & import.

The Template button sits in the listing form and inbox on kleinanzeigen.de, under Messages in the dashboard and above the Description when editing.

In messages, {Sender} becomes the other person’s name and {Titel} the listing title.

More: where to find it and placeholders
  • The text goes in at the cursor, or at the end if you have not clicked into the description.
  • In Edit multiple items and Change fields … the template is a small icon next to the description fields, and it also appears in contact forms on kleinanzeigen.de.
  • Name not known: the placeholder is left out. Hello {Sender}, becomes Hello,.

The Default for listing descriptions is already in the description when you post a new, empty listing on kleinanzeigen.de. You switch this off under Settings › On-site panels with Text templates in input fields.

More: when the default template does not appear
  • The title or description is already filled in.
  • You edit an existing listing.
  • You publish from the inventory.
  • Your package’s description supports bold text, headings and lists: insert the template there with the Template button.
