Problem with WordPress Custom Template

[KilakwaBT]

I am trying to use a specific template for my front end forms. I have added the following to my civicrm.settings.php file.

define( 'CIVICRM_UF_WP_BASEPAGE', 'single'); where single is the name of the template.

When added I get a page not found. Here is what the URL looks like: mydomain.com/wp/single?page=CiviCRM&q=civicrm/event/register&reset=1&id=3

If I take out the 'single' (or whatever the template name is, I have tried a few) from the URL all is fine but confirmations, etc get all messed up. I have tried this in 2 separate installs one with Civi 4.2.7 & One with 4.2.8 with the same results. I have looked through the forums and see that this should all work fine. It seems like I am missing something simple but am at a loss.

Anything I should look at would be appreciated.

Thanks

dont know a lot of specific WP terminology, but here is what i did when i experimented with it last week:

Try creating a simple page called 'single'

its the name of the page, not the name of the underlying template. If the above works for u, can u update the documentation to make it clear using the right WP terminology

thanx

This helps, still running into issues. Mostly with an existing WordPress Install that has a lot of posts, etc. I will work on it and document what I can.

Thanks
