Custom page template for content pages

Question

Is there any way to make a custom page.html.twig template in Drupal 8?

By default, Drupal generates some suggestions, but I'm looking for something like page--node--content-type.html.twig.

Answer 1

You are looking for hook_theme_suggestions_HOOK_alter().

HOOK is the name of the template, in your case, page. You should be able to add the following to your theme in the .theme file.

In there, do something like this:

function yourtheme_theme_suggestions_page_alter(array &$suggestions, array $variables) {
  if ($node = \Drupal::routeMatch()->getParameter('node')) {
    $suggestions[] = 'page__node__' . $node->getType();
  }
}

Answer 2

This code from Jeff Burnz (https://www.drupal.org/node/2521876#comment-10684366) solved it for me. It also places the suggestion above page--node so the capability to override with page--node--% and page--node--[id] remains.

<?php
function THEME_NAME_theme_suggestions_page_alter(array &$suggestions, array $variables) {
  // Add content type suggestions.
  if ($node = \Drupal::request()->attributes->get('node')) {
    array_splice($suggestions, 1, 0, 'page__' . $node->getType());
  }
}
?>

Your file name is bad, rename page.htm.twig to page.html.twig

After for clear your cache during page refresh, enable an use settings.local.php file inside your installation, on linux by example, copy and rename the example file to the good location with this command:

cp /sites/example.settings.local.php /sites/default/settings.local.php

Uncomment this lines inside your settings.php :

 if (file_exists(__DIR__ . '/settings.local.php')) {
     include __DIR__ . '/settings.local.php';
 }

And inside /sites/default/services.yml use this value:

debug: true

Inside settings.local.php, uncomment this line :

$settings['cache']['bins']['render'] = 'cache.backend.null';

Because Drupal say

Do not use this setting until after the site is installed.

Now, your environment is ready, you can create theme and modules, but if you add a template file, you need to clear the cache manually :)

Note: don't use this configuration in production (bad performances for user/server).

Answer 4

it is ok ,according to drupal 8 theme api the template file for page is page.html.twig, may be you did not clear cache.

It's like:

• node--[content-type].html.twig ex: node--article.html.twig
• node--[content-type]--[display-format].html.twig, ex: node--article--full.html.twig

Here the screenshot of template suggestion:
