You just need to extend the abstract class `LIN3S\WPFoundation\Configuration\Theme\Theme` to get it working. Why? ---- [](#why) [LIN3S](http://lin3s.com)'s [WPRouting](https://github.com/LIN3S/WPRouting) is a very robust solution to manage the Wordpress routing system in a [Symfony](https://symfony.com/) way. We came up with this solution in our way to a MVC architecture because many PHP files where scattered in our template root directory with dummy unstructured code. This way, we are now able to match routes used by Wordpress with the actions from our Controllers, letting us to keep a simpler a more intuitive theme folder structure for new coming developers. We faced some issues when we started using WP-Routing plugin, creating a php file in theme's root folder had no sense just to add an annotation. Therefore, we came up with this alternative to avoid using annotations to declare new page templates. With this plugin you can now use a hook to add your custom page templates, and the default template selector items will be replaced with your programatically declared templates.
