I am working on a Wordpress theme.
I have made a custom post type, works, which has it's own template files: archives-works and single-works.
It is working beautifully when on localhost but online Wordpress cannot find the single-works and turns to the category template instead of archives-works.
Do You have any ideas?
According to the template hierarchy the correct name for your file should be archive-$posttype.php so change your archives-works.php in archive-works.php

Try using archive-works instead of archives-works

I am facing a problem over and again. The problem is template option missing at the WordPress Dashboard. How can I make visible template option at WordPress dashboard?
I have also created a templete.php file in my root folder - wp-content\themes\twentyseventeen, but it's not working.
I am using version 4.9 of WordPress.
Check if your index.php file is in place.
If it's not there, wordpress treats the template as corrupt and it doesn't display the template selection.
Also,
I solved this problem solved by adding the typical following code:
/*
Template Name: Custom
*/
Don't add any spaces after Name:
It'll work if you use template name: as well.
Double check the template file name you have saved in the root directory of your theme prefixed "template".
Example: save the file as template-xxxxx.php.
I want to override woocommerce templates from my theme. I follow all the steps from the official documents of woocommerce. And I'm sure that there is no woocommerce.php file in my theme.
So, I can;t understand why it isn't working.
I'm using twenty seven theme.
Any help will be appreciated.
I had an issue with this relating to the WooCommerce template cache.
The cache can be cleared by navigating to:
WooCommerce > Status > Tools > Clear template cache
If you've already read this documents
https://docs.woothemes.com/document/template-structure/
Please Note: When creating woocommerce.php in your theme’s folder, you will
be unable to override the woocommerce/archive-product.php custom
template in your theme, as woocommerce.php has priority over all other
template files. This is intended to prevent display issues.
Also make sure that you don’t have “Template Debug Mode” activated that you can find under:
WP Dashboard -> WooCommerce -> System Status -> Tools
Try to declare Woocommerce support in your theme's function.php
After lots of researching, finally I've found my answer from here WordPress - Failing to override woocommerce templates
Actually, I use all of my files inside the template folder and this is the reason why it didn't work.
So simple steps. But I can't understand how was I miss it!
Thank's Mo'men Mohamed for your suggetions.
Yes i agree with Mobashir.
There are three steps to check why override not working :
Check in functions.php for woocommerce supported added ( URL : https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/woocommerce-theme-developer-handbook/ )
Check spelling of directory and files is proper in theme such as your-theme/woocommerce. ( URL : https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/template-structure/ )
Woocommerce allow to change the location of woocommerce template. Hook is : woocommerce_template_path .If you are using the premium theme then check for filter hook in your theme's functions.php file. If that hook exits then use that location which is mention in that hook's callback function.
I'm facing the same issue. I am using the JupiterX theme with Elementor and trying to override the checkout template in the JupiterX Child theme, but it's not loading. I have double checked the path, it's like themes/jupiterx-child/woocommerce/checkout/form-checkout.php.
Solution:
I have resolved the issue. Actually, the JupiterX theme has its own WooCommerce overriding structure, that is themes/jupiterx/lib/templates/woocommerce/checkout/form-checkout.php and the same for the child theme that is themes/jupiterx-child/lib/templates/woocommerce/checkout/form-checkout.php.

I want to ask that can I create a file with my favorite name and use WordPress Codex in it ? How I can do that ? I want to load posts of a unique category in it ...
Note: I don't want to create a Page from WP Dashboard.
Thanks !
It will be better to create a page template and write the code for displaying post from category. Then assign your template to any of the Page in Wordpress Dashboard.
Look at the Wordpress Template Hierarchy
To load posts of a unique category (e.g. movie_cat) you can create a file named category-movie_cat.php.

If you want to create a new php file which will work with your WordPress install, create your new file and copy/paste this piece of code, name this file like you want:
define('WP_USE_THEMES', false);
/** Loads the WordPress Environment and Template */
require ('wp-blog-header.php');
Correct the path for wp-blog-header.php according to where your new file is placed (in this example, the file is at the same level of wp-blog-header.php).
Add your special script to this page and you're done !
Note that this method is a way to display your content in another way than the activated theme. If you want to add function in your plugin or theme, you only need to include it in your functions.php or main plugin file to use WordPress functions, db...
Hope it helps
I'm trying my make my first theme for wordpress.
Is there any possibility to create custom php page to display custom content?
Pretty much adding to WordPress another copy of the likes of single.php, post.php or 404.php.
All I want just a page to display the custom content on it.
Every tutorial I found so far uses just creating new page within WordPress.
I want to avoid it and for custom page to be enabled straight after theme activation.
The Idea is to have something like my_custom_page.php and to be able link to it after.
Is there any way of doing it?
Thanks
here is the solution to what I was looking for
http://kovshenin.com/2014/static-templates/
To achieve custom page functionality you can use page template concept of wordpress. Creating a page template is extremely easy. Create any new file in your theme and start the file with a comment block like so:
<?php
/*
Template Name: My Awesome Custom Page
*/
<h1>Hello There</h1>
You need paste php code inside this template file. When you submit for then redirection action will be page with custom template page.

I am using WordPress 3.2.1 ,
Page template selection drop down is missing on Pages (Add,Edit)
wp-admin > Pages >Add New > Page Attributes
I Edit the Template Page Default page as below code
/*
Template Name: New Template
*/
But still the template drop down no visible , my older version of WordPress it display by default.
Following is the screen shot for more idea
I solved this problem solved by adding the typical following code:
/*
Template Name: Custom
*/
Don't add any spaces after Name:
It'll work if you use template name: as well.
It might help someone: check if your index.php file is in place.
If it's not there, wordpress treats the template as corrupt and it doesn't display the template selection.
This should be simple to troubleshoot. The requirements for the page template to work are straight forward:
The template needs the page title in the top of the file like you've shown (the title needs to be wrapped in a PHP tag, you probably just didn't add it with your example bu I want to make sure you havne't overlooked it):
<?php
/*
Template Name: Custom
*/
?>
The second requirement is that the file is in the root of the theme folder.
With those two requirements in place, it should work. If it isn't working you nave a few possible issues. I list a few off the top of my head:
You might need to re-install WordPress in-case a file was corrupted
during your last update.
It's possible someone has altered the WP-Admin layout using users
roles.
That's all I can thing of at the moment, let me know how it turns out.
I had the same issue. It actually turned out to be a missing style.css file within the template directory in my case.
This happens because the get_post_templates() in class-wp-theme.php first checks for errors. If it finds any then it returns an empty array (no templates are displayed).
A side effect of this is that saving a page would clear the existing template and use the page.php instead.
So in short if the errors() method of your theme returns any errors then no templates dropdown.
hope that helps someone.
Same issued, I found out that in appearance panel in your WordPress dashboard the stylesheet is missing. You shouldn't rename the style.css in your theme folder.
Not sure if this will help anyone, but we solved the problem by disabling our theme and re-enabling it again. We had some other theme folders in the theme directory that we weren't using so we deleted those out as well. good luck, it's a really random problem to solve!
yeah!template dropdown not showing because you have no template So how to solve this::---
1 create template folder in theme
2 create a template in this folder
like:-
<?php /* Template Name: Home */ echo "template"; ?>
and check-in page dropdown will be there.
