# Installation

## Important Notes Before Installation

* Please install this TYPO3 template only on a new or blank TYPO3 instance. Installing it on an existing TYPO3 installation that already contains data may overwrite or remove your current data.
* If you plan to use this template on an existing website, we strongly recommend creating a full backup of your files and database before starting the installation process.
* This template installation may create predefined pages, content elements, and configuration settings. Therefore, using a fresh TYPO3 instance ensures that the template can be installed and configured correctly without affecting existing content.

## Page Tree

After installing the TYPO3 template extension, the **Page Tree** will be automatically created in the TYPO3 backend, containing all required pages and content.

<Note>
  After installation, it is important to configure the **correct page IDs** to ensure that the menu and content work properly. In some cases, TYPO3 may misconfigure the page IDs. Please navigate to **General → Menu and Pages Settings** and assign the appropriate **Page IDs**.
