Hi!
I want to make a copy of Homepage Template, say Community Template, and to customize it. I did this already and I copied it to the templates folder of my CBox child theme, but it doesn’t appear in the list of templates when I try to change the template of a page. What I must to do yet?
Perhaps I was not clear, or my question is too complicated. If it is a newbie question, I apologize, but I was not able to find a solution. What I want is to keep the theme original homepage template (cbox-theme/templates/homepage-template.php) for the main page, but I want also to make a copy of this template and customize it for a subpage. Any idea how to do this?
Hi Lurie @iurie – Is it possible that when you created your template you didn’t change the template name? If the name is the same as another one, it probably won’t show up in the dropdown. It should look something like this:
/*
Template Name:My Custom Page
*/
Also, this link may also help to understand how templates are created:

Hope this helps and let us know if you have more issues.
@scottvoth – Scott, shame on me! I was sure I did it! I’m sorry I bothered you!
Thank you very much!
