Drupal Theming - Different themes for each webform - drupal

I am including a webform block in a page using module invoke.
The block is included as a node, and says "Submitted by admin on Wed, 2010-01-20 14:06" on top of the form. The devel template information is as follows:
Template called:
node.tpl.php
File used:
sites/all/themes/david01/node.tpl.php
Candidate template files:
node-webform.tpl.php < node.tpl.php
I know how to theme the webform (webform-form-###.tpl.php), but how do I theme this node in particular (node-webform-####.tpl.php is not a candidate!)

Try to define node-[nid].tpl.php - a template for a single node.
Also look through this post.

Changing the "standard template" name of the single.php post template

I have a Wordpress website, now i want to change the post template name how it displays in the Wordpress CMS. Now it's saying "Standard template", i want to rename this to "News", just for usability reasons.
I can't find a way to do this. I know you can create new post templates by creating new files, but it always takes the single.php as standard template. I'm also using a child-theme, so i dont want to delete the single.php file, just rename the text: "Standard template".
Thanks in advance.
I tried creating a new post template file with a custom title. This doesnt solve problem, as the single.php file will still be the standard one (i dont want the user to have to change the template).
You can use another single.php for another post type for example if you have news registered as a post type you could have a single-news.php and that file then would server all the single views of postype = news. But from what i understand you would like to create a template appearing to the user with a different name. For that the best practice is to create a directory inside your child theme and name it page-teplates. Inside this directory you can create as many different templates you want and wordpress will recognize them but adding the following code at the top of each template. For the sake of the example lets say i want to create a contact page template. I will create a contact.php file inside the directory page-templates and have these lines of code inside.
<?php
/**
* Template Name: Contact
**/
get_header();
/* My templates Code/Design Here */
get_footer();
The possibilities are endless.
The code in this post will generate a dropdown box similar to the one that you see in pages.
All it requires is a little editing of your child themes functions.php file .
In most cases, you just need to copy your single.php file to a new file name in your child theme and edit the functions.php file in your child theme. Name your templates as seen in the code Dimitrios posted.
consider using the premium elementor page builder to create custom post templates that you can apply at will.
Try a plugin like Post Custom Templates Lite

In Wordpress website, connecting to another web_based application

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.

creating wordpress custom php page

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.

Drupal 6 theme add / edit content form

Drupal 6 theme add / edit content form
In Drupal 6, we can add new content type "content-type".
We want to theme /node/add/content-type by template file.
We want to theme the edit form /node/$nid/edit of this content-type also by template file.
How to do this?
For this you need to understand the naming convention of tpl files in Drupal. This link will help https://www.drupal.org/node/1089642
According to documentation,
"http://www.example.com/node/1/edit" would result in the following suggestions:
page-node-edit.tpl.php
page-node-1.tpl.php
page-node.tpl.php
page.tpl.php
Either you can try adding content-type in the naming as suggested(I have not tried it personally), or if there are few customization to be done, adding a check like
<?php if($node->type == 'content_type_name') ?>
over available variables in "page-node-edit.tpl.php" will also do.

Specialized template for subpages?

If I have a page named 'events' (of which the specialized template will be named 'page-events.php'), is there any way to have a specialized template of a subpage 'events/event-sub-page'?
I can't seem to find how to do it in the documentation here: codex.wordpress.org/Page_Templates.
You would just create a new template called events-subpage.php and build it accordingly. Then when making your page in wordpress, select the template events-subpage.
You can just create the "event-sub-page" page in WordPress, set its parent to the "events" page, and make your custom template file "page-event-sub-page.php" (no need to specify the "events" part in the actual php filename)
Or in my case I wanted "../login" for a specialized login form and "../login/recovery" for password recovery. The template page is simply "page-recovery.php"
