Answers.Body: <p>We did it by just removing those template files from the server (I couldn't find a less brute-force way to do it).  In wordpress they are here:  <code>wordpress/wp-content/uploads/civicrm/ext/uk.co.vedaconsulting.mosaico/packages/mosaico/templates</code>.</p>

Answers.Text: Hi Ruth, I removed the base templates, but that led to no templates being available for use.  Could you clarify who exactly you removed them from the server.

Answers.Text: Hi themak, I didn't delete any templates until I had used the versafix-1 template to create a custom template for my organization.  Even then, I didn't delete the original versafix-1, I only deleted the tedc15 template which we were never going to use.  IDK what would happen if I now deleted the original versafix - would my customized template go away too??  Don't really want to try it...

Answers.Body: <p>The best way to do this now is to go to <strong>Administer menu » CiviMail » Mosaico Settings</strong> and configure the <em>Hide these base templates</em> option. See screenshot.</p>
