Problem with WP Page Templates and Pod pages

1

Hi,

I am having a problem using different WP templates for my pod pages. I have created a new page template called 'Alt Sidebar 1' that has a different sidebar than the default page template (page.php).

This works fine for normal Wordpress pages, but if I change my pod page from using page.php to use 'Alt Sidebar 1' then I get the following show instead of my pod items:

Not Found
Sorry, but you are looking for something that isn’t here.

Has anyone seen this before? If it makes any difference I am using a theme I generated with Artisteer 2.5.

Thanks

Tommy

Have you tried to configure your settings->permalinks to be pretty, like /%postname%/. If you use the default query based url structure of wordpress, pods urls won't work – bakaburg1 May 8 at 4:37

It looks like a 404 error? Is this text somewhere in your theme file?

I don't think that the sidebar talks to pods at all. I have two pods-powered sites that have multiple sidebar files, and there is no problem with pods throwing 404.

I would guess that there is something in the Alt Sidebar 1 that is hosing your page. Try deleting all the content out of the Alt Sidebar 1 php file, and see if you still have the problem.
