Hi,
Right now the page-front.tpl.php is just a copy of my page.tpl.php file so I would thing there would be no code errors(yet)
Most appreciative,
Pat Chuprina
Just to add to Carl´s & Laura´s comments: Be sure there is no code error in your new php file.
If you are new to this you might just modify a tiny thing in your custom-made front page like a textual change. This way you can check if the systems works. If it does, you know everything is setup neatly and you can go-ahead and continue modifying your front page.

Hi,
Thanks for your prompt reply.
Yes I did, a few times. I'm now getting a page not found message along with the background. Sorry to say, but I'm new and confused and not sure what to do. Is it my Default front page setting?
Thanks

Any time you add a new template in your theme directory you need to clear the Drupal cache. Did you do this?

Vers. 7.0 Theme: Genesis
Hello all,
I've created my page-front.tpl.php page to allow me to style differently from the the site. Unfortunately it is not showing up. I've gone to: Home » Administration » Configuration » System and attempted to use the Default front page with no success. I'm using a local test platform, so have entered: http://sitename:8082/ but don't know what to add after that.
I've researched it on this site, but seem to only get answers for drupal 5.0...... What am I missing or what have I done wrong.
Any help and/or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Did you change the filename like Laura said:
Pro Drupal Development (Your Best Friend :)) :
■ Note If your custom page.tpl.php file doesn’t appear to be working, remember to visit admin/config/development/performance and clear your site’s cache. You can also create custom .tpl files for specific pages of your site; for example, you could copy page.tpl.php and create a page--front.tpl.php file. This new template would be applied only to the front page of your site. You can also do the same thing with node.tpl.php. Let’s say you want to theme articles differently than other node types, like a basic page. You can copy node.tpl.php from the modules/node directory to your theme directory and rename that file to node--article.tpl.php. This new template file will override the standard node.tpl.php file for any node that is an article. For additional details, visit the theming guide on Drupal.org at http://drupal.org/documentation/theme. ■ Note There are two dashes between node and article. Drupal requires two dashes.
