I noticed that using the Sample Child Theme - There is no Page Template to select under Page Attributes. So I thought if I added a page_blog.php to the child theme folder I would now have a template to select for the blog Page. And yet there is still nothing appearing under Page Attributes. What am I doing wrong here?? The whole point is to have the blog page show a sidebar and it will not. It is showing the default layout I have chosen under the Genesis Settings, even though on the page it self I have selected it to have a two column layout
You need to look under the templates. To create a blog page - You Add New Page, then look on the right and then select the Blog template. Then save it. Add it to your menu and then it will show up all of your blog posts.

That is just the thing - THERE IS NO PAGE ATTRIBUTES - nothing. nada. no where to select page template - blog. Even though I have uploaded a page_blog.php. Still nothing.
Oh, I see now - you need to scroll down and select the PAGE LAYOUT towards the bottom. You have that set to FULL WIDTH. Change it by adding a layout with a sidebar.

NM - I was missing info in the header of the style sheet somehow!!!
EDIT:::: Can select BLOG TEMPLATE now I added the missing info in the style sheet header. HOWEVER the blog is still showing up as full-width content even though I have TWO COLUMN selected in layout of the page!!! GOING NUTS!! Never had this problem before 🙁

I just copied the Genesis theme core blog_page.php into the child theme folder. From my understanding, I shouldn't have to do that to have the blog page show properly. Could this be happening because I have the front page set to a static page?
No Dice. Still showing as full content, no sidebar still. I have never used the sample child theme before, I have used lots of Genesis child themes and never had a problem like this. Just so strange. I set another page, not the blog page, to show the sidebar, and it shows up just fine. So the problem is just with the blog page
Can you post the header information you put in your new template?

Can you post a link to your site? Also, in the page template - how do you have it set up - content-sidebar or sidebar-content-sidebar, how is it set?

I posted it at the very top of the thread, I have Genesis set to Full Width, but the blog page set to sidebar content
I am having the exact same problem with the Serenity Theme, but I don't even know enough about coding php to understand what you are saying as to how to fix it... can you guys / gals be more specific as far as how to get that "Page Attributes" box back so that I can add a blog page?
