[Evergreen-catalogers] Template Editing Issues

Thu Oct 11 12:24:55 EDT 2018

I have created a bug report for the alert message issue --
https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/1797418

Please add any additional info I may have left out. I didn't add
webstaffblocker as a tab but please do if it does block your use of the web
client.
