Hi! I ran into a problem where I couldnt delete a template. It was complaining about duplicates and got stuck on "deleting". Apparently this is a known issue.
Since I couldnt delete it I went into the database and from what I can see removed all references about the document type and the template. Both where blank so there was no information in them. Now however I get an object reference error when trying to access any of my document types and I can't seem to get any of my templates to show. Any ideas how I can fix this problem? What kind of reference should I be looking for?
Rename the duplicate node first... you should be able to delete it afterwards.
Another usefull tip: Don't do any cowboy editing/deleting directlly in the Umbraco DB (nor any other CMS). There are inumerous dependencies and references that you're not aware of..
Object reference in documents type :(
