• I’m now on WP 2.6, but I remember before when I went to add a Page, I could always select the Template to use.

    I’ve created a few templates but can’t access them through my Admin portal.

    Why can I not choose a template for my new pages now?

    Thanks.

  • Principle should be the same. You select a template at the bottom of the “Write” screen.

    The dropdown options I have are………..

    Custom Fields
    Comments & Pings
    Password protect this Page
    Page Parent
    Page Order
    Page Revisions

    Nothing else 🙁

    It should be right between Parent and Order. Perhaps your theme only has one template? You could try to switch themes.

    OK. Good shout.

    Just for the record, to create a template I’d use the following code:

    <?php
    /*
    Template Name: Corporate
    */
    ?>
    
    <?php get_header(); ?>
    
    Corporate STYLEE
    
    <?php get_footer(); ?>

    and upload it into wp-content/themes/newdefault , obviously the ‘newdefault’ is my default theme.

    In my original ‘default’ theme I can select different template, but not in my new one 🙁

    Thanks

    I just copied the ‘default’ folder, renamed it ‘newdefault’ , uploaded it, made it my main default theme and now can’t select different Templates for my Pages 🙁

    please help

    It now works. Absolutely no idea what I did different.

    Thanks for the help folks 🙂
