title: Magento change product page layout (catalog.xml is NOT working)
body: <p>As I know, we can only do that by hand, and must must edit the <code>“catalog.xml” file here: app &gt; design &gt; frontend &gt; default &gt; myskin &gt; layout &gt; catalog.xml.</code> Do a search for “Product view” and change the code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;reference name="root"&gt;
  &lt;action method="setTemplate"&gt;&lt;template&gt;page/2columns-right.phtml&lt;/template&gt;&lt;/action&gt;
  &lt;/reference&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and i already set 2columns-right.phtml there,  but it still is using 2columns-left.phtml !  </p>
  
  <p>Who know how I can figure out this problem ?  thanks.</p>
