   I've created a custom page template (all it does is display the page without the page title) ... but I can't access it when i'm adding/editing pages.

   When I click on Quick Edit there is nothing listed in the Template drop down box.

   Any suggestions?

   Review the instructions on this Codex page.

   <?php
   /*
   Template Name: Name
   */
   ?>

   Similar problem. I've followed all of the procedures and have the correct code as you've described above.

   I think my whole php custom layout page for no sidebars is correct. It works on my local host version of WP; there I get the page template dropdown options box. However I get a slightly garbled page, altho with no sidebar. Does this mean my php page isn't accurate?

   When I try to upload the template file via FTP to my BlueHost server, I get no template options. I've tried logging out and back in after the upload, still no options box.

   Any suggestions?
