    I am using notepad and WSftp to edit my WP theme. I am trouble finding the main page that needs to be updated. I have gone through every .php file I see.

    I figured it would be either index.php or page.php and both have some info that I was able to edit. But if I right click on the live page and view source I see a more comprehensive page with all coding. I do not know the name of this page file. It is not index.html of course.

    Can someone tell me which is the main file to edit? Again, I have viewed every .php file here in notepad and some in other directories. Looking for someone who uses WP enough to know for sure right off the top of their head.

    Thanks – Xwinuser – Ex Windows user -X windows user

    It depends on what you’re using as your “main page” and what part of it you’re attempting to edit. It also depends on what theme you’re using. A single page may be built by one or more template files and many themes over-ride WordPress’ default templates.

    Try taking a look at the template hierarchy in the codex:
