This article lists topics for Week Eight of Web Design and Development III (MGDP2060).

Update: WordPress Page Templates

Don't use Page Templates with Pages selected for the Static Front Page or the Static Posts Page -- doing so causes the CSS to fail.

The same is true when using the Static Posts Page option.

See WordPress Home Page.

WordPress Templates

A WordPress Template is a PHP document which controls how WordPress content is displayed.

Template hierarchy

All themes must include the Template file named index.php.

Additional WordPress Templates form a hierarchy, overriding index.php for specific types of information.

See WordPress Template hierarchy.

Header and Footer Templates

Most WordPress Themes include Templates named header.php and footer.php, which are included in all of the other Template files.

See WordPress Template.

The Loop

The Loop is PHP code used within a Template to display Posts.

See WordPress Loop.

Template Tags

Template Tags are units of PHP code used within Templates to display various types of information.

See WordPress Template Tag.

Exercises
