 * The problem I’m having this time is that custom PHP template aren’t being used
   when the “Default Layout” is selected.
 * 1. In Theme Options I defined the default template to static pages to “Sidebar/
   Content”. I did the same thing to all default layouts.
    2. I’ve created a hundred
   pages using the “Default” template, which should use “Sidebar/Content” template.
   3. I’ve copied “sidebar-content-page.php” to child-theme/page-templates and added
   some stuff (date created and modified). 4. The stuff I’ve added doesn’t show 
   unless I manually change the page template from “Default” to “Sidebar/Content”.
 * I don’t think this should be working like this… I’m doing something wrong or 
   the default template in Theme Options isn’t working as expected?
