I'm working on a WordPress plugin and thought that to load front-page.php
from my plugin, all I had to do was add it to the root directory like I would in a custom theme, but that has not been the case.
How do I get front-page.php
from my plugin to load and override any theme/child themes?
I've tried to use the locate_template
override from the codex here, but it only flashes my front-page.php
and then defaults to index.php.
Thoughts?
Thank you!
