While working on a theme for a client of mine, I encountered this problem and I can no longer find the page template when adding or editing pages. I’m not really sure what caused this as I didn’t even upgrade my WordPress or changed theme.
If ever you’ll encounter this same problem I’ll share below how to fix page template missing in wordpress:
- Try changing to another theme, in my case I change to the default WordPress theme
- Then, change back to your previous theme again
- Try adding or editing page and you’ll see the page template is back
