    Hi.
    How to disable in manager user access to certain templates in the drop-down menu. I try over the element category access, user no longer has access to that template in elements tab, but can continue to choose from drop-down menu while editing resources.
    Thx.

      Sounds like the drop-down is not respecting the system’s authority! Could be a bug in the processor responsible for getting that list of Templates. Can you report it here?

          Even better, I’d like to be able to use Form Customisation to disallow my users to change templates at all. Why can I hide other fields from them using custom forms but not this one?
