I have been trying to make on the changes to a template that users will select for a particular type of post. but I can not get the an if is_page_template = to mytemplate.php to work.
These pages will be made off and on so page id# or something similar will not work for this use.

hi jrobben-
I think you may be going about it in the wrong way. try something like: is_page_template('about.php')
This may helpalso:

sorry I should have posted the actual code here is function have ran to test for various pages. I commented out all but one testing for is_page_template
I set this up as part of my trouble shooting.
function test_code() {
// echo "is_single: "; var_dump( is_single() );
// echo "is_home: "; var_dump( is_home() );
// echo"is_page: "; var_dump( is_page() );
/*echo "is_page_template: "; var_dump( is_page_template() ); */
/* echo "is_page_template('page-template-2col-page-php'): "; Var_dump( is_page_template() ); */
echo "is_page_template('2col-page.php'): "; Var_dump( is_page_template() );
}
add_action('thematic_belowheader', 'test_code');
?>currently running on www.cookingsalmon.net and resolving as true for any page, false for home, and posts, categories
just so you know; for now, these are the changes to the template page that I want to make
// from style.css (line 248) increase width from 560px
#container {
width:700px;
}
// style.css (line 347) to display:none or use function to remove
#secondary {
float:left;
width:200px;
}
// reposition primary sidebar style.css and make postion fixed or relative to the top right corner of the container (line 335)
#primary {
float:right;
margin-right:20px;
width:200px;
}
// remove the comming attractions -
// either display none or turn off function that creates it style.css (line 315)
#above-primary {
-moz-background-clip:border;
-moz-background-inline-policy:continuous;
-moz-background-origin:padding;
background:red none repeat scroll 0 0;
color:green;
float:right;
margin:0 20px 10px 0;
padding:5px;
width:400px;
}

That's beacause all pages use page templates. You need to specify which template.
echo "is_page_template('2col-page.php'): "; Var_dump( is_page_template('2col-page.php') );
Thanks, easy when you know how. lol
