I have drupal-6.19 installed on a development server for 2 hosts. In my theme directory I have a basic template in page.tpl.php the similar to the way I want, I copy it to page-front.tpl.php and then edit it to remove print $content; and simply put Welcome save and exit the editor. Reload and I still have the default drupal page. I went to /admin/settings/performance and clear the cache reload the front page and I have same thing. I look at development.cxm/user/1 and I get the new page-front.tpl.php. Thinking it was a module possibly causing this I deleted all the modules with the same result. I then copied the theme to a safe place deleted the whole drupal install as well as the corresponding database. I start over from scratch this time I make a development.cxm and development2.cxm the only thing I did after the install was change the time formats and change file formats to private -transferred by drupal. I then make the themes directory on both sites and copy mytheme there. In the one install it has the same result as above and I get the normal admin screens when I go to /admin/ on the second site it works the same as it did above except this site shows the page-front.tpl.php when I go to /admin/. How would the same theme have a different effect (and both not the desired result) on different sites? I am including both my page.tpl.php and page-front.tpl.php
