You can set different templates to different pages.
ex. if you want make a page named “recent-news”, you need to do two things.
- Create recent-news page (titles, contents are editable in your admin area)
- Create page-recent-news.php
See http://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Template_Hierarchy#Page_display for more info.
page-{slug}.php – If the page slug is recent-news, WordPress will look to use page-recent-news.php
Am kind of new to WP, and not very good at programming, so I hope I am not going to ask too many questions. But…
I can do use WP to create a page with title and contents, but when I create page-{slug}.php
1.) Where do I place it in the directory?
2.) I’m not sure of how to name a “page-{slug}.php”. I don’t suppose a blank page with no code on it would work. Maybe it would, but…? My thought is I would like download another template or theme, and then title it page-{slug}.php. Then there’s still the question of where to place it.
Thank you for all your help!
