» Wordpress. Template pages not showing in dropdown list
One fix to this dropdown problem - it works for me - in either pages and authors name in write panel is to “jog” the system by changing your custom theme to default theme and FTP upload the page templates you made in original theme to default theme folder.
Go to Pags > Add New and check if dropdown for page template is there. If you see it there, then system’s been “jogged”. Change theme back to your custom theme and in all probability the page template dropdown is there.
If not, go change theme to classic theme and FTP upload your page templates there and check for the dropdown in Pages > Add New. Again, if you see it then change theme back to custom theme.
