Looking at the wp_postmeta table, you can see the page template is stored there. Therefore, a simple call to update_post_meta (codex) should do the trick : update_post_meta( $post_id, ‘_wp_page_template’, ‘my_template.php’ ); The filename and extension is necessary, as per my example.
For the language filter from WPML to take effect you have to allow filters in get_posts. Default this is off. You can add suppress_filters=0 to your get_posts args and it should work. See: http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/get_posts#Parameters <ul id=”archive-list”> <?php $args = array( ‘suppress_filters’ => false, ‘numberposts’ => ‘-1’, ‘post_type’ => ‘post’, ); $myposts = get_posts($args); foreach($myposts as … Read more
I second Tom’s answer, however in the interest of answering your question, have a look at this question using the template_include filter.
This should do the trick for you. This shows what template file is stored in post_meta, if one has been selected in the admin panel: $template_name = get_post_meta( $the_query->post->ID, ‘_wp_page_template’, true ); If you want to see if the page is the homepage, use is_home() or is_front_page(). If you want to see what files are … Read more

Just remove the old file from your theme’s directory. That list of templates is generated from the files present in your theme, so you probably have two files.
I think your problem is how your function is constructed and not your condition as such. You should not be wrapping your function and your action in a condition like this. Page templates are selected really late in the query by the main query, and I probably think that this is way to late for … Read more
You have custom filter in a plugin or in your theme that is messing with WP_Query. Your issue is that something is setting is_home to false. This is not default behavior, by default, is_home should return true in any custom instance of WP_Query. is_home is one of the contributing factors which is responsible for setting … Read more
You can use Options API or Setting API to store the data in the database. Write a plugin to create a meta box for the introduction text and show that text on the archive-unicorn.php. Or you can utilize the description parameter when you register_post_type and print it in the archive-unicorn.php like this: $unicorn_obj = get_post_type_object(‘unicorn’); … Read more
Hard to give an exact answer without sharing your code, but using is_page_template() in an if statement will help determine when you display your custom field group: if ( is_page_template( ‘template-y.php’ ) ) { # Display Field Group X code here… } else { # Do something else… } Again, if you could provide your … Read more
