Hi there,

I’ve had a look at [this post](https://forum.getkirby.com/t/how-to-change-template-in-backend/17895) as it seems to be the same problem I’m having, but it’s not working for me. I’d like to enable the `changeTemplate` option in one of my page blueprints, but it’s not working.

Here’s my entire blueprint. To me, it looks like, but clearly something is wrong as I’m still not able to switch templates.

```auto
title: Upcoming PenPal
icon: pen

options:
  changeTemplate:
    - penpal
    - upcomingpenpal

columns :

  - width : 1/1
      fields :
          firstname :
            label : Firstname
            type : text
            width: 1/2
          surname :
            label : Surname
            type : text
            width: 1/2
          date :
            label: Date
            type: text
            width: 1/2
          link:
            label: Website
            type: url
            width: 1/2
          info:
            label: PenPal Info
            type: markdown
            size: medium

```

Hm, looks correct to me and should work. Do you have any user permissions in place maybe?

Nope. I’m an admin.

There will be something silly I’ve missed somewhere, I think. I’ll look at it with fresh eyes in the morning and will post back here.

Thanks.

Just as I thought, some time away from the keyboard and a fresh pair of eyes and I immediately saw the problem - one of the template blueprints had a typo, so there was no matching blueprint for it to flip too. 🤦‍♂️
