## Description

This plugin offers you the ability to add custom page template files to your WordPress
installation without having to manage
 theme folders or use a ftp client. Simply
upload the custom template file you have been working on and it will be registered
with WordPress as a template option for your pages. This plugin is straight to the
point and has a clean user interface using W3.CSS.

Plugin menu is located under ‘Appearance’ menu.

## Installation

Install and activate the plugin and then find it’s options page as a submenu under
the Appearance menu.

To get started, simply upload a custom page template and it should automatically
be registered with WordPress, and thus it will
 be an option on the ‘Edit Page’ 
screen under ‘Page Attributes’->’Template’ as a drop-down option.

Step By Step:

 1. Upload the plugin files to the `/wp-content/plugins/custom-page-templates-setup/`
    directory, or install the plugin directly
     through the WordPress plugin repository(‘
    Plugins’->’Add New’->’Search Plugins’->’Install Now’).
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ screen in WordPress.
 3. Go to the option page (‘Appearance’->’Custom Page Templates’).
 4. Upload a custom page template php file.
 5. Go to the ‘Edit Page’ screen for desired page.
 6. Change the page template under ‘Page Attributes’->’Template’.
