Had the same problem today, not sure what triggered it as I was editing some template files and the box disappeared.

Switching themes back and forth did NOT fix it. I had to delete my custom theme folder from the server and upload it again.

Thanks for this article, it put me on the right track of knowing it is WordPress misbehaving, so I did not have to wrestle with the code for hours thinking I broke something.

It looks like I have this problem too. I have wordpress website where new templates don’t appear. Tried switching themes no joy … Puzzled.

Thank you so much. I was starting to lose my mind. I've been working with WordPress for years and haven't run into this issue yet. A simple template change and then back and viola. By the by I know this is an older post this also works with the newest version of WordPress 2.9.2. Thanks a ton:)

Nice one, really helped me out. Looks like the same issue occurs if you delete the default stylesheet from the theme directory too.
