In reply to: Replacing Main PageOK, this is what I have done thus far.
1) took the index.php file and renamed it to indexa.php
2) took indexa.php and added <?php /*Template name: A /*?> to the 1st line.
3 created a file called indexb.php and added <?php /*Template name: B /*?>
4) went to WP and began to create a PAGE called NO CONTENT (didn’t save) but, looked in the Page Attributes PARENT drop-down box for Template A & B. Couldn’t find these files.
So between my previous message above and the info herein, hopefully we should be able to point out where I went wrong.
Also of note: I’m using a Theme called Optimized Press which has several different templates already installed if, this is where I’m to find the newly created templates.
Again, thanks for all your help.

In reply to: Replacing Main PageThanks for this information. I hope this is not too much to ask but, I’ve got a couple of more questions on same topic.
1) when I rename index.php to something else, do I want to keep a file named index.php (as it is) with it’s current contents?
2) When you say create a new PHP file, “adding the content…” am I “really” adding content or making this file to look the same as the one in step 1 above or am I actually dumping in code, video and the content of what the page will look like?
3) I’m thinking this code will allow me to have a drop-down menu to select Template A or Template B and make that the page which people will see when they access my primary URL.
