New WordPress 4.9 is not showing my page templates
-
Hey Guys,
I’m working on a custom WordPress theme I created from scratch.As yesterday November 15, 2017 I was able to create new page template in WordPress, everything was working great, just a simple page template using the following syntax:
<?php /* Template Name: My Template */ ?>
<?php get_header(); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>And saving the page as: page-mytemplatename.php
Today November 16, 2017 I came in this morning and updated my WordPress platform to 4.9 and now I cannot see my page templates in the drop-down menu in the dashboard. Can someone help me with this? I uploaded all my templates using FTP and I’m seeing them but they are not showing up, am I missing something? Help please!!! Thanks

@ibrahimfaisal, that is incorrect. For a global template, the proper comment is
Template Name:In a style.css file, “Template:” is used to provide a link to a parent theme.
Hi,
Using WordPress 4.9.2 or 4.9.4, page templates do not show up. Installing the plug-in “WP Clear File Cache” by “Be Seismic” and clearing the cache does nothing.
My site is set up as a multi-user WordPress. It also uses Woocommerce multi-language. It uses a custom theme. The page templates are called page-jfgallerya.php and page-jfgalleryc.php. Giving them another name does not help.
I have just reverted to WordPress 4.8.5 and the page templates menu has reappeared.
In response to ticket 42573.
Thank you,
Jf
