    Hi! So, a template I’ve made has a bunch of TV, say a, b, c, d, e.
    a, b and c will be used by my client to edit the resources.
    For d and e, it would be better if my client didn’t even see them.
    Now, I know I can limit tv access by resource group. But this way, access will be denied for ALL the tv of that template.
    Instead, I want that my client can edit a b and c, and doesn’t see (or can’t edit) d and e.

    Is it possible? How?

      "Lock template variable", a checkbox, should give you what you want, I think.

        This will lock TV settings to edit by only Role 1 user.

        To get that done, u need to put those TVs into resource groups and keep your client user out of that specific resource group.

        eg. Make a resource group "Admin Editable Only" and assign this to those TVs.

          Ok thank you. So, I thought that way masked ALL the TV of a specified template. Instead, you mean that I can hide only a subset of that template’s TV right? So to a resource group, I not only can assign entire resources, but also single TV?
