I am a Drupal beginner. I'm using Drupal 7. I created a blog using views. I'm trying to theme the blog node using node--blog.tpl.php but it doesn't work. When I change it to simply node.tpl.php it works. I don't know what is the problem. How can I make it work?

  • When you say, "created a blog using views," are you trying to theme a teaser or other view of a node displayed in that view? If this is the case, the template name should be node--view--NAMEOFTHEVIEW.tpl.php or node--view--NAMEOFTHEVIEW--NAMEOFTHEDISPLAY.tpl.php...

That's a known issue in some Drupal versions: Drupal will not pick up node--blog.tpl.php from your theme directory unless there is node.tpl.php too. Just place them both in your theme, clear cache, and you should be fine.
