The version 2.6 and 2.6.1. WordPress has a bug when you go to create a new page, shows no templates or templates for your theme, nor any drop-down menu in the bottom section of Advanced Options.
I found 3 solutions, a strange, and another one on php, which I have worked, CSS:
- In WordPress.org suggests a solution to this bug still not resolved. A strange solution but it has worked to some, this is to change the theme for another and reconnect to change in this way will re-read the directory of your theme and display templates.
- In Frozr pose another solution is to edit the file in the directory wp-admin
edit-page-form.php Specifically change the value 0 to a higher value, for example 110: if ( 0 != count( get_page_templates() ) ) {
function page_template_meta_box($post){
?>
- As I do not have worked either of these two solutions I saw that they were the Advanced Options for editing pages, simply did not work on Ajax to deploy so they always for just showing off the property that the hidden file
wp-admin.css directory wp-admin: 1169. #poststuff .closed .inside {
display: none;}

In less than 48 hours the site Dear Adobe has attracted the interest of itself as Adobe announced its creators, Erik Frick and Adam Meisel on the blog site.
Dear Adobe (Dear Adobe) tries to collect the complaints from users of various products from Adobe and recorded on the Top 50. The user makes a claim and the other negative vote, or positively consider inappropriate.

I've tried many applications and extensions for Firefox for catching displays, for the time being I liked most is Gadwin PrintScreen (2.75 MB)
It allows:
- copied to the clipboard and / or save the file in various formats,
- rename automatically
- set the shooting mode,
- and the key (default is "Print Screen")
- image resizing,
- add water mark,
- capture the cursor or not,
- specify a destination ...
The only thing that does not allow for the freeware version is the edition of the catch but you can indicate which application to open the capture or pay for the professional version: Gadwin PrintScreen Professional
