change the php?

    hi-

    I am having some issues with my own created templates working properly. (but am making headway)
    I’ve changed get_header() to get_header2()
    is that unacceptable? That file is uploaded too. header2.php I’ve now tried with get_header() and it works. The only difference between header.php and header2.php is the title. I want them to have unique titles

    again, I am not fluent in php, but do know my way around code html/css

    Anyway, it does seem to be working now with get_header(), but I am concerned about not being able to use get_header2()

    What is the best solution here? I am trying to pull up a different header file

    thats not going to work. you cant just create calls to functions that arent defined.

    get_header actually does something — it’s a function, its defined.

    You can probably create you own function for that and put it inside your theme’s functions.php – I say probably because Ive not done it.

    Short of that, there are examplesx of how to manipulate the title(s) in the codex and all these very forums.

    the way i get various alternate files is with this command

    in place of…

    get_header()

    try this…

    <?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . ‘/header2.php’); ?>

    i have only done it on one theme and i don’t know if this is a universal command or theme-specific. but try it 😉

    i’d be interested to know if it works universally ;-)))

    Yes, I just use TEMPLATEPATH too.
