Deleting custom source templates

Post by Lovelyclemmy »

I have been experimenting (unsuccessfully to date!) to create my own source templates by cloning existing ones. However despite having deleted them in the sources template list and the custom collection is showing as empty they are still appearing when I use "select template for new source record". Can anyone tell me how to get rid of them?

Thanks

View > Other Records Lists > Source Templates. Have you deleted them there?

The thing to remember is that Source Template Definitions 'live' outside of projects and have to be added to a project to use them. When you add them to a project, you get a Source Template Record within the Project, which is independent of the Source Template Definitions (unless you use Tools > Source Template Definitions to synchronise between a Source Template Definition and the corresponding Source Template Record.
