   Hi there,

   I wonder if there's an easy way to change/update/choose the template file used for just the front page from within the WordPress Dashboard itself without changing the whole theme?

   Essentially I want to change the background/title/etc colours on just the front page.

   I'm comfortable to just go in and edit home.php when necessary, but because several other people who use the blog are not, so this method isn't ideal.

   Thanks and I hope that made sense,
   Oliver

   Have some php conditionals for is_front_page(), add in classes just for them, and have styling just for those classes.

   Hey there,

   Thanks for the tip! Unfortunately I need to be able to change between one of several different front page templates at will.

   Again, something I believe I can do fairly easily in the code, but leaves the other users unable to change the template from within the Dashboard.

   Thanks,
   Oliver
