I wanted to edit the blocks inside a reusable block without updating the reusable block. So I moved everything out of the reusable block. Since I couldn't see a way to delete it, I just saved the page with the reusable block empty.

Now I have two Content Templates that I can't edit because the empty reusable block just keeps showing a spinning circle inside. I can't select or edit anything else on the page.

The templates actually work fine on the front end, but I can't edit them at all.

This occurs in the content templates with the following ID numbers:
1725
762

Any suggestions?

Hello,

You can try these:
Create a new page, click button "Options"-> "Manage all reusable blocks", see my screenshot manage-blocks.JPG

find and remove those specific reusable blocks, then test again.
