I have extensively read many articles and the Drupal docs on how to create Drupal 7 theme templates, but for some reason none of the recommendations are working.
I have fresh install as of Friday, I have uninstalled all Modules. I have only created 3 basic page with a machine name of "page", a Content Type with the machine name of "staffers". I have my wrapper in page.tpl.php, which is working.
I can get the staffers content type to work only if I use node--nid.tpl.php ("node--6.tpl.php"), however I can not get node--staffers.tpl.php to work.
Additionally page--id.., or node-id.. will not work for the "page" content so I can't even figure how I can write a single custom template for each page id I want, or an overall template for the "staffers" content type.
I have nothing coded in my template.php at this point, and even with customethemename_preprocess_node being added I was unable to load the page--front.tpl.php I read about once.
So how do I get Drupal to load the template by nid or machine name for pages and custom content types?
