so I have been creating a new php page in dreamweaver, then I apply my template.
Then I copy your php, for example, from the categories.php page and paste it into the coding just after the edit region 3 bit.
Then I tweaked some html links, uploaded and everything worked beautifully...
But then I wanted to make a global change on my template. Made the change, and instead of the template being updated it seemed to corrupt the coding within the edit region bit eg. This is what it did to the affiliate page, which when viewed gives an error https://www.claire-harrison.co.uk/shop/affiliate.php (i'm not using the affiliate page which is why I have left it)
