Custom page templates in child-theme of Vantage Premium

11 years ago · Last reply by Andrew Misplon 11 years ago

I’ve attempted to set up a custom page template in a valid child theme of Vantage Premium, but am not grokking the way(s) in which Vantage P’s structures differ from WP standard w/r/t custom page templates. Do you have a quick thumbnail guide on how to set up custom templates in VantPrem?

Can’t give a ‘view the issue in action’ URL, b/c it’s simply that I can’t yet make the custom template appear as a layout option for pages.

    Hi Benjamin

    It should be the same as any other theme. You can put your new page template anywhere in the child theme. Here is the intro to the existing Full Width template, you could use it as an example:

    <?php
    /**
     * This template displays full width pages.
     *
     * @package vantage
     * @since vantage 1.0
     * @license GPL 2.0
     * 
     * Template Name: Full Width Page
     */
    get_header(); ?>
