Duplicate Templates Crashing Template Manager

    Hello,

    We recently inherited an EE install (v2.1.3 Build: 20101220) and we’ve been unable to access the Template manager. It loads a blank white page.

    When we looked at exp_templates in the DB we noticed that there are almost 4,000 templates listed.  2,784 of those are duplicates of a webpage template.  406 of those are duplicates of an RSS feed template in the same template group.

    So we assume that the Template Manager is trying load all of these templates and just running out of PHP memory.  The host doesn’t allow us to increase the memory beyond 90M default.

    The two templates that have duplicates are also saved as files.

    So, how can we remove these duplicates?  Can they be deleted from the DB without causing other issues?

    Thank you.
