Ok my Wordpress has been driving me crazy today. I have my homepage set up to be a static page, and that page uses a custom page template. I have added additional content to that template, and everything was working fine until today when I went to change some of the content in my template.

I made my changes and saved the template file, and then checked the home page and it's still showing the version of my template before I made the changes today.

I double and triple checked the template file and the file is correct with the new content but the home page still shows the old version of my template.

I tried copying the template into a new template with a different name, but the list of template files on the edit page doesn't even list the new template.

Then I tried switching to a different theme and re-activating my theme, but that didn't help.

Any ideas about what's going on and how to fix it? By the way, I'm using WP 3.1.2 and I don't have any caching plugins installed.

What template file are you using for your Front Page?

Do you have a front-page.php template file in your Theme?

Ok, never mind, I figured it out - this was an issue with my hosting - they had just migrated their servers and my computer was still accessing the old files somehow. Thanks for the help though! – Bernie Shawn Jun 22 '11 at 22:57
