   please don't duplicate posts
   on the edit or add new Pages screen on the right side is a drop down menu for templates
   if done correctly your page template will be there

   @redlinemd,

   I'm getting the same problem. I've created my theme template correctly, but the drop down doesn't show up in the Page Write panel.

   When I switch to the default wp theme, the issue goes away. Switching back does nothing.

   Also, I'm using the WP-Framworks theme as starting point.

   any help would be appreciated.

   EDIT: For some reason the syntax in the WP-Framework files didn't include 'Name' when naming templates. As in:
   /* Template Name: test */

   vs.

   /* Template: test */

   Hope this helps for others.
