Hi @mike_l_01 ,
Thank you for reaching out to us.
The “Editor” option is not available in the Appearance section of the Responsive Theme. However, if you’re looking for ready-made templates, you can easily access them by installing our Responsive Plus – Starter Templates plugin.
You can explore the available templates here: CyberChimps WordPress Themes.
If you need any further assistance, please feel free to reach out. We’re happy to help!
Kind Regards,
Shantanoo
Thank you Shantanoo. I don’t want to change the appearance of our entire website, just one section of it. I would like to have a modified version of our current template saved as a new template and applied on a page by page basis. This is normally possible with WordPress. Why would it not be possible with the Responsive theme?
To assist you better and ensure smooth communication, we kindly request you to raise a ticket on our support system at https://cyberchimps.com/open-a-ticket/
Rest assured, our team is committed to resolving your issue promptly and providing you with a seamless experience.
Looking forward to hearing from you!
Hi @mike_l_01
We appreciate your patience and are happy to provide further clarification. To address your concerns:
- Theme Functionality & Customization Options
The Responsive Theme is a classic theme, which means it utilizes the WordPress Customizer for functionalities. This is why you can access customization options via Appearance > Customize. On the other hand, Block Themes (such as Twenty Twenty-Five) rely on the Gutenberg block editor, providing customization through Appearance > Editor. The functionality you’re referring to is theme-dependent and applies specifically to block themes.
- Creating a Custom Page Template
If you wish to create a custom page template in the Responsive Theme, kindly consider these options:
- Creating a Child Theme: You can develop a child theme by following this official guide from WordPress:
Child Theme Guide
- Using the Responsive Plus – Starter Templates Plugin: This plugin also allows you to import a single page of your choice from a starter template, making customization much more effortless.
Import a single page template.
We want to assure you that this is not an issue with the Responsive Theme but rather a difference in how classic and block themes function. If you need further assistance, please feel free to reach out—we’re happy to help!
