# Getting Started

### Activating the Template

Once you have added the template, click on "Create an app" on your Bubble homepage:

The Whiteboard SaaS template will be available from the "Start from a template" dropdown:

### Removing Demo Functions

There are several parts of the theme that are included for demo purposes. Don't worry, removing them shouldn't take more than 2 minutes :smile:

You'll need to:

1 Remove this floating banner on the index page

2 Remove the "Demo Sign in" button from the "login" page

### **Adding the Advanced Whiteboard Plugin**

In order to fully use the Whiteboard SaaS theme, you'll need to add the [Advanced Whiteboard plugin](https://bubble.io/plugin/advanced-whiteboard-1690181918844x287889038869528580). This is a **paid** plugin that has also been developed by Cranford Tech.

You can either purchase a lifetime licence or subscribe to the Advanced Whiteboard plugin by following these steps:

* Go to the "Plugins" tab of your Bubble editor
* Click on "+ Add Plugins" button and search for the Advanced Whiteboard plugin
* Click on "Buy" or "Subscribe"

The Advanced Whiteboard plugin is itself built on [whiteboard.team](https://www.whiteboard.team/). Some light configuration is needed to get the plugin working. You'll need to:

* Register for an account at [https://www.whiteboard.team](https://www.whiteboard.team/)
* Get your "Client Secret" key from the developers section of the whiteboard.team dashboard and add it to the "Api-Key" fields in the plugins section of your bubble editor (both test and live modes)
* Get your "Client Id" key from the developers section of the whiteboard.team dashboard and add it to the "Client Id" fields in the plugins section of your bubble editor (both test and live modes)<br>

### **Other stuff you'll probably want to change**

* The text on the index page (I use a dummy quote from Elon Musk 🤷
* The logo in the Navbar and Sidebar Nav (both reusable elements) and the footer
* The existing data in the database (all "users" and "boards")

You're now ready to go!&#x20;
