    So you want to create site using custom template then you need to explicitly add allowedPath property in your template. or you can directly create site without using template from CRXDE and add cq:allowedtemplate

    you can refer we-retail for reference

    /content/we-retail/jcr:content

    /content/we-retail/language-masters/jcr:content

        You need to allowed your custom templates in your site root page from page properties -> advanced.

        You can see available templates from CRXDE , there will be a property called cq:allowedTemplates which restrict use of templates.

        Maven makes your job easy by giving you the basic structure which is needed to start with your project. But always if additional configurations are need you have to still do it manually under the configurations.

          Hi The option tools->general->Configuration is not only to create templates but also other things like CF.

          The maven did the same thing via command, it created your project configuration for template under /conf/
