# front page using wrong template

 * I have ‘Front page displays’ set to ‘Your latest posts’ so the front page should
   be using home.php template but it’s using page.php? Any idea why? I’ve never 
   seen this problem before.
 * Update: Actually it’s not using page.php, the function get_page_template() returns
   page.php, bit of a misleading function.
 * Resolved.
