I've duplicated a template file in the directory of page template. But nothing show up? I wonder.. I also tried putting test.php in the upper directory (wp-content/themes/twentywelve)
Open the template file in a text editor. You should see something like this near the top of the file:
/*
* Template Name: Portfolio
*/
(Of course yours will like say something other than Portfolio)
This is where WordPress gets the name of the template, for the drop-down when editing pages.
If this is missing, or if they are the same, that will cause problems.
So, either add or edit the Template Name comment, so that it is different:
/*
* Template Name: My Template Name
*/

i want to integrate several layouts into my theme. so far I have solved it via page.php and page-blue.php because I saw it that way in tutorials. unfortunately the other template is not displayed under the page attributes. i don't see the error. even if i choose a different theme the attributes do not appear. what am I doing wrong?
it should look like this
this is how it looks
this is the page.php
this is the page-blue.php
Change the name of the template, page is reserved word, also create brand-new file with file name other than page.php, which is also reserved file name.
And, for god's sake, name your template files in a way they mean something, self-explanatory.
Example for dummies:
<?php
/*
* Template Name: Some Template
*/
And the file name of the template should be some-template.php inside your theme's folder!

pls Use This code
<?php
/*
* Template Name: page-blue
* Template Post Type: post
*/
get_header();
?>
instead of this
<?php
/*
* Template Name: page-blue
*/
get_header();
?>
I am using a child theme. In my child theme folder I have the following files:
In my custom page template "page-lp3.php" I'm using get_header('blank') to call a custom header template. But no matter what I do, it reverts to the child-theme's header.php file not header-blank.php as intended.
This is the code in "page-lp3.php":
<?php
/*
Template Name: LP3
*/
get_header('blank');
?>
The custom template is activated for that page in WordPress. And the changes I make to the custom template are working as expected. But the custom header is not cooperating. What am I doing wrong?
Check the error logs files of your project and removes errors first.
I think you do something wrong inside the "header-blank.php"
How to debugging error
1 . Call default header if that come copy default header code into your new header-black.php and check.
2. add die with some message inside new header file and check
3 remove cache of browser
I need to add a header Access-Control-Allow-Origin: * into one of my template files. How would I do this I would like it to be for just this specific template so that its not site wide,
I think you're looking for is_page_template();
<?php
if(is_page_template('your-page-template.php')) { //Change this to the path to your wordpress template
//Add your code here...
} ?>
you can create a custom template page and call the custom Header on this template.
To create a page and apply a page template
use this code to create page template
First you need to have a single page. There are several ways to do it, one is to create a page in wordpress, then use the ID and create a file page-ID.php in the theme folder. Other way is to create a template file which you can select from the side menu in the wordpress editor.
In that page, you can add the php header and the code you want to show.
I have a .php file which uses some WP functions e.g. get_stylesheet_directory_uri(), query_posts, etc... and $wpdb of course.
File it self return JSON data so it is not intended for viewing on its own.
I'm not looking for template, or clicking around in WP dashboard, I just want to know where is the good place in WP file structure to put the .php file and expect WP functions and object to be available.
And also what do I need to include at the top?
You can create custom template in theme root directory or in child theme (child theme is important when you are creating custom template).
template should contain template name, header and footer function.
eg. custom-tpl.php
<?php
Template Name: My Custom Temlate
get_header();
//your other functions and content goes here
get_footer();
after creating template it will appear in your edit page template section under drop down. select custom template for your page and view page you will get your output
You can create a custom page template.
Inside the page template:
<?php
global $wpdb;
[here you will write your code]
?>
On the front pages where you want the json output, use this url
http://domainname.com/wp-content/themes/themename/custompagetemplatename.php
Use your domain name (domainname), theme name (themename) and theme template file name (custompagetemplatename) in place of example names in the url. This url will return you the output for your code.
About this comment in your template:
<?php
/* Template Name: Full Width Page */
?>
You do not need a template name in the header of your file unless you want to use this as a template for pages in wordpress.
I am new to wordpress.
I want to partially render some html code to wordpress page from admin section.
Description : i have a file menu.php with contains some html elements.
Is it possible to inject this file to a page from admin section while editing page information.
Many Thanks.

[1] You can simply add html code/elements in the page/post. Have a look to this screenshot: https://www.diigo.com/item/p/rapdderzccaddbecazbecorocb
OR [2] You can create a template as described below :
Duplicate post.php or page.php in your theme folder (under /wp-content/themes/themename/).
Rename the new file as templatename.php (where templatename is what you want to call your new template!). Enter the following at the top of the new file:
<?php
/*
Template Name: templatename
*/
?>
You can modify this file (using php) to include other files or whatever you need.
Then create a new page in your WordPress blog, and in the page editing screen you'll see a 'Template' dropdown in the 'Attributes' widget to the right. Select your new template and publish the page.
Your new page will use the php code defined in templatename.php
