    Hello,

    I’m developping a wordpress theme. I’m making a custom theme for a specific page.

    I created a “Home” page with the identifier “home”. I created a page-home.php file, with this loop:

    get_header();
get_topmenu(); ?>

    <div class="catch"></div>

    <div id="primary" class="content-area page-home">
        <div id="content" class="site-content" role="main">
            <?php /* The loop */ ?>
            <?php if(have_posts()) : ?>
            <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

                <article id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>" <?php post_class(); ?>>
                    <h1 class="entry-title"><?php the_title(); ?></h1>

                    <div class="entry-content">
                        <?php the_content(); ?>
                    </div><!-- .entry-content -->
                </article><!-- #post -->

                <?php comments_template(); ?>
             <?php endwhile; ?>
            <?php endif; ?>

        </div><!-- #content -->
    </div><!-- #primary -->
    PAGE HOME.PHP

<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>

    But doing this, I’ve got ALL my pages displayed in the loop, and not just the “home” page… What is the cleanest way to get just the “Home” page ?

    Thanks for your help to a theme-developpement newbie 😉

    Maxime

    I want to say part of that reason is because you are looping over the posts. What happens if you remove the while/endwhile and simply use: the_post()?

    Finally, it does not work… I added another page with the identifier “gear”, and even if the page-home.php template is the one which is displayed, the_content() function returns the “gear” page content…

    I tried this piece of code, but the_content() stills return the wrong page:

    $page_object = get_queried_object();
                $page_id     = get_queried_object_id();
                var_dump($page_id);
                get_post($page_id);

    I call localhost/mywordpress/?q=home, which is also the homepage I setted in the WordPress admin panel.
    Wordpress renders the page with the page-home.php file, that I created. The Page “Home”, with the identifier “home” is supposed to be showed, but instead of that, I get the “Gear” page content.
