I'm using a route to use a different template, but whatever I try the page remains unchanged, my structure is set as:
entry url format: {slug}
entry template: _pages/_entry
I want an entry's slug to use a different template - would this possibly be affecting the route being followed?
I want the entry 'home' to use the 'index' template (and not the '_home' template which exists at _pages/_home)
I've cleared my cache and updated indexes
You know you can do things like this in your root entry template to load it dynamically based on slug or entry type
{% extends [
'pages/_custom/' ~ page.slug ~ '.twig',
'pages/_entrytypes/' ~ page.type ~ '.twig',
'pages/_generic.twig' ]
%}
What does each line actually do assuming thats in _entry.twig? and assuming the templates reside in the /pages directory? A brief overview of the functionality would be invaluable :)
page and the slug slug. It would first try to load pages/_custom/slug.twig - if that doesn't exist it would try to load pages/_entrytypes/page.twig - and, finally, it would fall back to pages/_generic.twig
