Have you made sure that there’s another functioning template? A template should have the following right at the top of the code:
<?php
/*
Template Name: Whatever
*/
?>
If your page.php file is now fixed, make a copy of the whole file under a different name and put that code (with an appropriate template name substituted for “whatever”) *at the very top* — save, upload to the server, and then check again to see if the templates are showing.
Ok duh! I got it now… thanks to all 😉 You can tell I’m new.
I’m considering hiring a professional tutor for advanced learning on theme development. Can anyone give a lead where I would find a professional teacher?
The best “professional” teachers are the helpers in this forum! I mean the users, members who keep coming back and offering their time and support.
There is nothing complicated about theme development if you know HTML and CSS.
I know css and html like the back of my hand. By nature I am a designer so when it comes to more high tech code I sometimes get flustered. I’ve made a lot of progress already. I appreciate all of you!
I guess trial and error is the key;-)
I’m glad it’s fixed. Maybe you could mark the topic “resolved”?
An Moshu’s right about the amazing amount of help available on this site. Even though I’m a novice I try to pitch in when I can out of sheer gratitude for all the help I’ve had over the last few months.
Thanks moshu,
It’s so more easy with a tutorial.
Gonna be able to have different meta and graphics for my pages.
