I have no idea how this happened. I decided to try a little experiment. I spent over an hour deleting EVERY template on my sandbox in my virtual machine. Everyone. Mouse click on delete, followed by finger on Enter key. I got into quite a rhythm at times.
Then I closed the window, and they all came back. I tried again as Admin and they didn't. But, then I tried again as myself and they didn't either. Of course, the last two I just did one category and not all 12 or so. I hope that the problem isn't getting rid of all of the templates. It made no sense.
Anyway, if anyone cares or wants to know, I was able to get rid of every single name associated with a template and replace it with mine. That way, I can do what I want with the template. Delete it, share it, copy it. No more Mr. ADMIN
I must say the templates are the one last frontier I don't understand. I have no idea why the same template is owned by so many people. Even owned by "labs" and "follow-ups." We had one MA here for one day. One day! And, her name is connnected to at least 50 templates. She didn't make one. All I can think of is if they use one, they own it. But, how would you get 50 in one day? And, why would she even use it.
Baffled. Any ideas?
