Theme won't load
kkobashi - November 18, 2008 - 02:34
I'm on a multisite Drupal installation using 6.6. My first Drupal site loads fine without problems. However a newly created second Drupal site won't load my new custom theme.
When I go to admin | theme Drupal sees it (I put the theme in the main /themes directory and not /sites/mysite/themes) and I enabled it and made it the default for my second Drupal site.
My page-front.tpl.php isn't being loaded.
Any ideas?

Splash Page
When I had a client that wanted a splash page, none of the typical drupal naming worked (I use my testing server to run about 3 drupal sites at a time, but I don't think that had anything to do with it). Instead I had to add the following php code at the top in the main file (page.tpl.php) for the front page to work. Name the home.tpl.php file whatever you like. :)
<?php
if ($is_front){
include('home.tpl.php');
return;
}
?>
did you clear the theme
did you clear the theme registry (performance settings > clear cache data), if you added the page-front after you enabled the theme, Drupal wont see the new template until you do this, try it anyway if you havent already.
