Actually, it seems the php file is never read.

I added an echo as the first command in both, my test.php file and the names.php file. The printed statement from names.php appears, mine does not.

Is the names.php somehow hardcoded?
Is there any naming convention that should be followd?
I checked the rights and ownership, they are identical for the names and test template:

Anyways, making a copy of one of the legacy templates did work. This seems to be workable solution.
