In this video, we break down the difference between pages and templates in WordPress. Learn how templates control the layout and structure of your pages – including headers, footers, and content – without affecting the content itself. We’ll explore how editing templates impacts all pages using them, and show practical examples using the Pages Template, Single Posts Template, All Archives Template, 404 Template, and your homepage.
You’ll also learn:
– How to safely edit templates without affecting page content
– How to add elements like newsletter forms to templates
– How to fix common mistakes when content ends up in the wrong place
– How to reset templates to default when needed
