Creating a child theme based on the new Twenty Seventeen WP theme.
So I grabbed the index page off the parent theme.
copied it to the folder of the child theme.
Renamed it “newpage.php”
Inside at the top I created the code that would normally create a new template
<?php
/*
Template Name: newPage
*/
get_header(); ?>
Saved everything, reloaded, etc. went to create a new page, but I don’t get dropdown with the choice of default or the newPage template.
So am wondering if with this theme things are done a differently?
Thank you
