How to add custom page templates in Evolv theme

Hello,

If you are making a change like this to the theme, we highly recommend using a child theme instead of changing the actual theme. However, given that you changed the header comment area it shouldn’t be causing a problem. I looked at your code and there is a minor difference. You used a typical PHP comment syntax of “/*” whereas the original code uses something different – “/**”. I looked up the PHP manual on comments on found that there is a small possibility in the difference. Here’s the statement about the “/**” that I found in the PHP manual:

Comments in PHP can be used for several purposes, a very interesting one being that you can generate API documentation directly from them by using PHPDocumentor (http://www.phpdoc.org/).

Therefor one has to use a JavaDoc-like comment syntax (conforms to the DocBook DTD), example:
<?php
/**
* The second * here opens the DocBook commentblock, which could later on
* in your development cycle save you a lot of time by preventing you having to rewrite
* major documentation parts to generate some usable form of documentation.
*/
?>
Some basic html-like formatting is supported with this (ie <br< tags) to create something of a layout.

I am going to submit this to the BoldGrid development team for a closer look, but I would first try changing that one little minor detail first and see if it doesn’t stop the abnormal behavior that you’re seeing. I also looked for other examples of something like this happening in WordPress, and there was one other example in theme (not part of BoldGrid). They suggested that the issue was a result of caching. They recommended clearing the cache and then reloading a normal theme before loading the original theme again. If I do get any further information on the issue, I will add a comment to this reply to provide you an update.
