I have tried it with many themes on Drupal but none works. I've tried to change different template files across different themes. I've reenabled them, cleared caches but no changes showed up. It is as if the template is literally stored somewhere and kept intact.
When I rename the page.tpl.php file completely, drupal loads instead the template from module/system. So, I know that it reads the directory, I am just not sure why it can't read my changes. Any ideas on how to fix this?
