custom layout settings won't apply

I have small problem with Magento. I'm not Magento guru but i'm trying to figure out this error.

And this 1column page won't be 1 column, it always two-column. Where can i check it?

I set in admin to this page custom layout - 1 column and for all others - use parent settings, on root category i set 2 column with left pad - no luck.

Inside theme/package/layout/local.xml the template for catalog pages was set to:

<catalog_category_layered translate="label">  
    <reference name="root">  
    <action method="setTemplate"><template>page/2columns-left.phtml</template></action>  
</reference>

For this one page the settings on admin was set to: Page Layout: 1 column.

These settings are not stable. In case the page is reloaded several times in a row, sometimes, I see, that the template for this page is "2-columns-left.phtml", sometimes - it is correct and is "1column.phtml"

Please i'll be glad for any help.

Edited: How can i set this page to be always 1 column? I've tried to comment template section in local.xml and setup Catalog->Manage categories->My_category->Custom design->Page layout to "1 column" but page still be sometimes loaded 1 column and sometimes 2 columns.

  1. please check if you don't have template set in cms: go to admin>Catalog>Manage Categories> [select your category] > Custom Design Tab > Page Layout - change to No layout updates

  2. catalog_category_layered mostly is set if you have anchored category, check this, also try catalog_category_default handler

There is another way to change the custom layout settings for the category page.

Go to admin panel Catalog > Manage Categories > Edit any category > Custom Design > Page Layout.

Here you can change the page layout for the category page.
