get_page_template()
Retrieve path of page template in current or parent template.
Description
The hierarchy for this template looks like:
- {Page Template}.php
- page-{page_name}.php
- page-{id}.php
- page.php
An example of this is:
- page-templates/full-width.php
- page-about.php
- page-4.php
- page.php
The template hierarchy and template path are filterable via the ‘$type_template_hierarchy’ and ‘$type_template’ dynamic hooks, where $type is ‘page’.

(string) Full path to page template file.
