Hi,
I want to assign a template to certain pages; e.g. to show archives on a page.
But when my Artisteer generated theme is active:
Wordpress 2.8.2 admin console/Pages/Add New does not show the Template selection in the Attributes section (only displays Parent and Order settings)
Althoug when the default theme is active:
The Template selection does appear, but of course only show templates for that theme...
Is this caused by Artisteer's generated theme? What do I need to change in my Artisteer theme to see its templates in Wordpress Page admin?

An Artisteer theme does not have any additional page templates. You would have to create one yourself by copying page.php, renaming it and adding the template code. Then you will have another template to play with and change to add the features you want and it will show in the admin panel. This is stuff that is done after the basic theme is created.

Templates from the theme which is active are displayed while adding a new page and you need to create new templates if you are using Artsiteer designed theme, you can create new templates as following:
You should copy all code from page.php create a new file name it any of your choice, add below given code on top of it, upload that file into your theme folder and your new template will be available to you to choose from a drop down list when you add new page or edit existing page. You can change this template's structure to your needs; you can assign a new name to your sidebar and you’ll be able to add desired widgets to this sidebar from widgets page. Now you can use this page template on pages where you need different structure and different set of widgets
<?php
/*
Template Name: new template
*/
?>
