I just created the Blocks and Regions in drupal 6. Now I want to align these regions (by using DIV id's etc..), so I created a block-[region].tpl.php file and write HTML and PHP scripts. Unfortunately these scripts are not showing in that regions, only the block contents are showing.

By the article, template files are searched in the following order:

  • block-[module]-[delta].tpl.php
  • block-[module].tpl.php
  • block-[region].tpl.php
  • block.tpl.php

But the contents in the files are not displaying. How I figure-out this problem ?

  • Did you clear Drupal's cache after you created the new template file?

My best guess is that you haven't copied across the standard block.tpl.php file into your theme. This is required (for a reason that escapes me) for overriding node and block templates.

There's a bit of a discussion about it in the comments on the link you posted.

  • Hmmm Drupal sites all over the place seem to be behaving very weirdly today...can you just confirm the name of your region as you've defined it in the .info file as well as the exact name of your block template file?
