Hey All,
I'm trying to make a left side bar be different from one page to the next. I just updated to the new version and found out that they have now taken out the custom page template option.
How would you do this now?
I am also trying to have my main navigation in multi colors. Meaning each "tab" needs to be a different color, but when adding pages it needs to be consistent. I don't know if any one has a little trick for this one. The only thing i could think of was to break up each button in the CSS and when i needed to add a page manually go into the code. :-( .
Thanks in advance!

Not sure what you mean by that. Each Page can be assigned a Template.

You used to be able to take a html file and put in the correct php markup and when you created a static page you could put that html/php document as the "template" for that page. Can you still do this? I don't see it in the admin panel
When you add a new page, you should see the Template pulldown. If you don't have that then you don't have a valid Page Template.
See Why is there no Page Template option when writing or editing a Page?

Thanks so much I got it to work now!!! It was driving me crazy.
Do you have any suggestions for the other task?
I should direct you to the Codex article, CSS.

THANK YOU!!!
I had to change my theme to default then change it back for it to work. That should be on the main page about creating default page templates though.
