Themes don't come with extra page templates ?
-
Hi everyone
I’m new at WP, but there’s something I don’t quite understand. Installing a theme is great to get quickly started with a blog, but as soon as you try to add extra non-blog pages, the themes out there start lacking.
It seems to me that anyone who wants extra pages on a WP website would not want them formatted like blog pages right ? By that, I mean a layout that doesn’t show comments, nor the latest blog articles at the bottom. In other words, the page layout would only show what you enter as text (and images, etc.) when creating the page from the WP client site.
But it seems that’s not possible without doing some serious coding and reading a lot of tutorials. You thus have to create a page template from scratch, and match all the classes used from the theme you picked (difficult for a beginner).
So am I missing something ? It just seems like something that would be included in most themes out there: a blank one column layout for you to add text to. Is it actually there and I don’t see it ?
I get the feeling the replies will make me feel like an idiot, but I’ve been looking for hours and couldn’t find any clear answer on this. Thanks a lot if you can enlighten me.
