    i made a new header.php file for another template that i have on my site, but i have no idea how to call it.

    right now i have:

    <?php get_header('headerpage.php'); ?>

    at the top of my custom template, but it keeps opening the original ‘header.php’ file. any ideas?

    In these multiple header.php files, what do you want different from one another?

    Your supposed to name it header-{yourname}.php
    And it is <?php get_header(‘yourname’); ?> No .php hypen etc.

    @andrew: i made a header template that has a slide show underneath the navigation. i guess i could’ve put it in to the page template, but i just made it in the header section instead.

    @potentweb: thank you !!!!!!!1 at first it wasn’t working, but then i took the steps again and then it worked!!!! legit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    No problem! Good luck.
