Description tba22333@tpg.com.au 2025-12-13 22:37:06 UTC 
When I would like to create a new template similar to an existing one, I would select the existing template, edit the Title and relevant metadata then click the [+Add] button, but it ends up replacing the existing one as well as creating a new one, so you end up with two copies of the same template and lose the existing one.
