   I'm trying to assign a different template to my blog posts, but it doesn't seem to be working. This is what I have done:

   1. I have assigned a static page as my home page (front). This uses the standard template for my site.

   2. I have assigned the posts page to be news (news). I want this to use a different template to above.

   3. I have duplicated the standard template, made some changes and re-saved it as 'Blog Page'.

   4. I have then gone to the 'news' page and assigned template 'blog page'.

   However, all of the blog pages use the standard template and not the 'Blog Page'. What have I done wong?

   the page listing your news postings sound like a category page. to customize that, you would need to create a category template based on the id of the news category.

   category templates, page templates
