If the content on that page is added directly to a custom template file, and the template file is in the desktop theme, then WPtouch won’t be able to ‘see’ the template file and the content in it. * Let us know a little more about how the content on the page is being added and we’ll have a better idea of why it’s not showing up in the WPtouch theme. Thanks. * Thread Starter [airdrummer](https://wordpress.org/support/users/airdrummer/) * (@airdrummer) * [7 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wpt-ignoring-archive-php/#post-11562614) * i have placed links to my single-download.php for my edd download pagetype ( [https://easydigitaldownloads.com/](https://easydigitaldownloads.com/)) into the bauhaus directory, where wpt finds it just fine, as well as news.php, but the archive.php link seems to be ignored * these are the links i have in ~/www/wp-content/plugins/wptouch/themes/bauhaus/ default: * ``` news.php -> ../../../../../themes/lalo/news.php single-download.php -> ../../../../../themes/lalo/single-download.php archive.php -> ../../../../../themes/lalo/archive.php archive-download.php -> archive.php category.php -> archive.php tag.php -> archive.php taxonomy-download_category.php -> archive.php taxonomy-download_tag.php -> archive.php ``` * as i said, my download pagetype displays correctly in both single-download & thru a shortcode, but the template hierarchy doesn’t seem to work for [https://letartliveon.com/downloads/tag/is-artist-name/](https://letartliveon.com/downloads/tag/is-artist-name/) or [https://letartliveon.com/downloads/category/genre/landscape/](https://letartliveon.com/downloads/category/genre/landscape/) * the template hierachy is supposed to default to archive.php, which is the template used in desktop mode. is there any debug output in wpt i can turn on? - This reply was modified 7 years ago by [airdrummer](https://wordpress.org/support/users/airdrummer/). * Plugin Contributor [WPtouch](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wptouch/) * (@wptouch) * [7 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wpt-ignoring-archive-php/#post-11566598) * [@airdrummer](https://wordpress.org/support/users/airdrummer/), * WPtouch free does not officially include support for custom page templates. We haven’t seen this type of setup before, so I couldn’t say why archive.php isn’t kicking in like the other templates. * You can enable WordPress Debugging to see if the logs show where things are failing.
