Any one have some knowledge on this topic of custom page templates?
The Codex is very helpful on this — look up templates.
I started with page.php to name a custom template. What file should I pull the if statement from that is equivalent to loop=page.php?
can you try to ask or explain that in different words? I have no idea what you mean.
are you referring to ‘get_template-part()’ ??
Let’s say I want to add a custom class like a wider .entry-content on one page. I know I can add a style:
.page-id-5 .entry-content {
max-width: 217px;
padding: 0;
}
But I want to do it the right way replace the content in a template with .entry-custom or something and control it through a page-home.php.
these might help:
a:
body_class() http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/body_class has a page template specific css class output:
.page-template-templatefilename-php
b:
there is a conditional tag to check for the used page template:

I’ve been using page.php for my templates and pulling statements from content-page.php. So I believe page.php is the file to rename custom-page.php and add a template name.
So I believe page.php is the file to rename custom-page.php and add a template name.
seems ok;
create a copy of page.php, and save it as custom-page.php; then ad the Template Name part.
