You can Create a New file or template file as under the steps,
Step 1: Locate your theme's existing pages
Locate your theme's directory on the local server or production
server.
Drill down to the theme folder to see your existing page
templates. Locate page.php.
Open it with a script editor.
Step 2: Insert name code
/*
Template Name: My-New-Page-Template
*/
Paste or type this code right before get_header(); ?>
Replace My-Page-Template with your own template name. You don't need the dashes you an use spaces. Also, note that in the above example there's no opening PHP tag because it's up higher in the file. If your opening PHP tag is on the same line as the get_header(); ?> , then your code needs to go right after the opening tag (with a space between).
Step 3: Save your new file
Save the file with a new name and a .php extension. For example - NewPageTemplate.php.
Put the file on the server at /wp-content/themes/yourtheme/NewPageTemplate.php (it's better not to have spaces in a file name.)
Step 5: Add a custom Content in the Main div tag of content
Open the file.
Add Custom Content of code to the page.
<div id="content" role="main">
/* Add Custom Content */
</div>
Step 6: Apply your template to your pages
Go to Pages > Add new.
Choose My-New-Page-Template from the Page Attributes.

And Also follow the example of create a new file or template file - https://www.ostraining.com/blog/wordpress/custom-page-template-wordpress/

Title says it really. Basic pages created in Drupal don’t seem to use the page.tpl.php file as a template.
If I edit the html.tpl.php file, those changes apply to every page, and it causes errors when I load a basic page.
I have also tried to copy the page.tpl.php file and name it page—basic-page.tpl.php to no avail.
Any idea what’s going on?
Also, how do I go about changing the page_top variable to include more content?
Lastly, the default page.tpl.php file has $page variables and things like $page_top and the like.
How would I call the title from the page only and the body text of a page only?
I’m using Drupal 7 and a custom sub theme.
The aforementioned files are in the template folder of the theme and I did clear caches when I added them.
Add $conf['theme_debug'] = TRUE; in settings.php and clear cache, reload page and check view source.
It will display the template file suggestions.
page.tpl.php file common for all pages. Just print anything to the tpl and run any node of basic page as well as other content type page and check if its working or not. If page.tpl.php not working for basic page only, then check your template.php file.
For print a page title just need to use following code:
<?php print $title; ?>
For print body text you need to use following:
<?php print render($page['content']); ?>
This may depend on the theme you are using. But I guess you are actually meaning page--page.tpl.php (double dashes). Which will be taken into account after you added the following snippet to your theme's template.php. Replace MYTHEME with your theme's machine name.
function MYTHEME_preprocess_page(&$variables) {
if (isset($variables['node']->type)) {
// If the content type's machine name is "my_machine_name" the file
// name will be "page--my-machine-name.tpl.php".
$variables['theme_hook_suggestions'][] = 'page__' . $variables['node']->type; // (double underscores)
}
}
See Template (theme hook) suggestions, where I also got above snippet from.
active theme debug for inspecting the template source and you get a different suggestions to user it (just avoid using node/nid).
commend drush to enable theme debug drush vset theme_debug 1
I want to create a page in word press website, that shows information from external DB by API. What should I do?
But other pages and theme are in the Wordpress database.
Thanks in Advance
Set up a custom template. It can contain all the custom code you need, such as the API to call the external database. You create a new template by copying and modifying the page.php file from your theme. Just remove the parts you don't want and at the top put your new template name in a comment line like this:
/* Template Name: External-DB-Page */
Save that to a file such as external_db.php, upload it to your theme or child theme directory and then in your functions.php you include the file by adding
require_once 'external_db.php';
This new template called "External-DB-Page" will now be a selection available when choosing a page template for any page in WordPress.
In the wordpress admin dashboard, on the pages tab, when you edit the page, there's a section called "Page Attributes". One of the options is "Templates", which opens a drop-down list of templates available.
Is it actually possible to find which template name corresponds to which file in the theme editor without looking through every single file in the theme editor?
Shortest way to achieve this is, if you want to get the file name then you can add in the template name directly
<?php /* Template Name: Example Template (example_template.php) */ ?>
So you will see the Example Template (example_template.php) in template dropdown
Seen this done before in other templates, just wondering if anyone here knows how to do this.
I have one template I have created, and two hard coded footer files. footer.php and footer-1.php.
I want to be able to select between using either footer.php or footer-1.php in wp-admin via the pages editor.
So far all I have found so far is adding something like this to the top of the file:
Template Name: footer_1
However, this requires that a secondary header and other files are also included, it won't allow just a change of footer alone.
Can anyone tell me how I can name different footer files so that wordpress detects them in wp-admin and allows me to switch between them.
I do not require adding widgets to these, there is simply two styles of footer and they have no correlation to page or category to hard code, they have to be selected in the admin area manually.
To dynamically change your footer with a admin editor option, do the following:
Open the page you want to customize in editor
Locate Custom Fields meta box in editor (If it is not visible tick the box Custom Fields in the Screen options dropdown at top right)
Select Add Custom Field in Custom Fields meta box
Enter footer_template in Name field and an arbitrary id in the Value field
Select Update to save your settings
Open your theme folder and locate page.php file
Open page.php file and locate the very last line <?php get_footer(); ?>
Delete the line in step 7 and add the following:
<?php
$scriptonomy_footer_meta = get_post_meta(get_the_ID(), 'footer_template', true);
get_footer($scriptonomy_footer_meta); ?>
Save and close page.php file
Make a duplicate of footer.php and name it footer- plus any arbitrary id you chose in step 4, ie: footer-1.php or footer-two.php
Now you can assign any custom footer to any page. You can do the same for the header as well using this technique.
I am trying to edit the default page view of a node in Drupal and i found the file called node.tpl.php but even if i change it, the node page on the site isn't updated...
So how can i update the node view page so i can added some text, images etc.. ?
I guess that node_show function () { } is the one that displays the node but the code there doesn't give me enough detail on where the HTML is created so i can it
You need to copy the file to your theme's templates folder and clear the cache out before you can use this file. The original file should be at root/modules/node/
You can also set a template up for a specific content type by copying the default node.tpl.php file and renaming it to node--CONTENT_TYPE_MACHINE_NAME.tpl.php
