    Hi all,

    I have created a page template in my child theme which is working fine, but I now want to make it full width. I have found this post which seems to point exactly what I want to do, however I cannot get this to work.

    http://wordpress.org/support/topic/i-want-two-full-widthphp-templates-in-twentytwelve?replies=5

    The code exert I am using is the 3rd post down by Drew Jaynes, and the issue I believe is my linking to the new ‘YOURS.php’ or my template name. I have added this code to my childs functions.php and placed the article page template in 3 locations, trying various different paths, but none of these seem to work:

    twentytwelve/page-templates/article_page.php
    twentytwelvechild/page-templates/article_page.php
    twentytwelvechild/article_page.php

    function childtheme_content_width() {
    	if ( is_page_template( 'page-templates/article_page.php' ) ) {
    		global $content_width;
    		$content_width = 960; //Or whatever width you want
    	}
    }
    add_action( 'template_redirect', 'childtheme_content_width' );

    Obviously best practice would be to keep it in the child theme’s folder and in a similar directory to the twentytwelve as makes sense.

    Site location of custom page showing issue http://coder-tronics.com/articles-2/

    But how?

    Many thanks,

    Ant
