Hi @editorialteam – the Index template is what’s called a “fallback” template: it won’t actually end up being used on most sites, since a more specific template such as Home, Archive, Search, etc. will automatically be applied first. It’s there solely as a fallback, to display any content to which no other template applies. In practice, if you’re not doing anything “fancy” in this theme, the Index template won’t be used. But it’s a required file in block themes like Twenty Twenty-Three.
If you’re interested, you can read more about the WordPress template hierarchy.
If you share your actual end goal, I’d be happy to suggest some ways to achieve it! For example, are you creating a Blog page and looking to create a layout similar to what you see in the Index template, or something else?
Thank you. That’s very helpful.
You’re very welcome!
I’ll mark this thread as resolved now, but don’t hesitate to open another if you need more help!
