Hello,
Thank you for reaching out. I understand how frustrating it can be when your homepage settings and custom template aren’t being applied as expected in Themler. Below are several steps and checks that usually resolve this issue:
- Clear Themler and WordPress Caches
Themler often stores layout data in its own cache. After making changes:
Open Themler → Theme Options → clear or reset cache (if available).
Also clear any WordPress caching plugin (e.g., WP Super Cache, W3 Total Cache).
Clear your browser cache as well.
- Re-export or Re-publish Your Theme from Themler
Sometimes the theme updates don’t fully apply until it is re-exported:
Open the project in Themler.
Re-publish or re-export the theme.
Upload/overwrite it in WordPress if you export manually.
- Verify Template Assignment in Both Themler and WordPress
Even if the page shows the correct template in WordPress:
Open the corresponding page layout in Themler (Home / Front Page layout).
Make sure Themler does not force a different layout for the homepage.
Check Theme Options → Pages to confirm the front page layout assignment.
- Confirm Static Homepage Setting
Under Settings → Reading, verify:
Homepage displays: A static page
Homepage: Your selected page
Edit the page and confirm:
The page template is correctly selected.
The page is published (not draft/private).
- Check for Plugin or Theme Conflicts
Temporarily disable:
Page builders (Elementor, WPBakery, etc.)
Caching/minification plugins
Any plugin that modifies templates or routing
If the homepage works after disabling plugins, re-enable them one by one.
- Check Your theme’s front-page.php & home.php Behavior
WordPress overrides page templates if certain files exist:
If front-page.php is present in your theme, WordPress will always use it for the homepage.
If home.php exists, it can interfere depending on the setup.
You may need to rename or adjust these files if they conflict with Themler’s generated layouts.
- Regenerate Permalinks
Go to Settings → Permalinks and click Save Changes without modifying anything.
This resets routing rules that sometimes block homepage template updates.
If none of the above resolves the issue, the problem is often a conflict between WordPress’s template hierarchy and Themler’s internal layout assignments. In that case, sharing screenshots of your Reading settings, page template settings, and Themler layout assignments usually helps pinpoint the exact cause.
If you were performing updates or installing unrelated apps recently—like checking options such as ibomma app download or other APK tools—be sure no external scripts or security plugins were added, as these can sometimes interfere with WordPress file permissions or template loading.
