Page--front.tpl.php not working - Tao theme This should be really simple, maybe I'm just having a moment. Why is my page--front.tpl.php not rendering my home page? I'm using a tao subtheme.

Here's my tpl.php file.



(There's no other page--front.tpl.php in the tao folder.)

Here's my front page settings:



And here's theme developer telling me that the front page is using page.tpl.php to load:



I've cleared my cache with drush a couple times and restarted my local server. What else am I missing?
I think I see a Windows specific issue here.

Notice how block.tpl only has the extension tpl and your new file page--front.tpl.php has php as extension in the filename?

Maybe Windows hides the php extension when you list files (and instead shows it under Type)?

Try removing .php from page--front.tpl.php and see if it still under the Type column shows up as php. If so clear cache and carry on :)
