   Beginner WordPress person looking to add an Amazon A Store To my Blog
   http://www.jerryzigmont.com/blog/

   I have created a template page using these directions
   http://build.your.own.astore.tutorial.googlepages.com/wordpress.tutorial
   and have uploaded a file called astore.php into my current theme directory.

   If I go to the Write Page - no selection for Page Template is present.

   Any help is really appreciated.

   For that option to show up you need to have in your theme directory at least two (2) Page templates: the default page.php AND another one.

   Make sure you have the necessary code at the top of your custom Page template:

   (and no typos)

   Here is what I have:

   <?php
   /*
   Template Name: Amazon aStore
   */
   ?>
   <iframe src="http://astore.amazon.com/jerryzigmontblog-20" width="90%" height="4000" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"></iframe>
   <?php get_footer(); ?>

   O.K., here is what was wrong. I had my ftp program copy my page.php file remotely and then I renamed and pasted remotely. For some reason, this did not work (permissions were fine).

   I created a new php document with the above code, saved it locally and the uploaded to the ftp site.

   Worked fine!
