• Sorry if Ive got this aroud my neck. Ive been using Umbraco where adding an heading, text field or a photo by placing a line of code in the layout is easy. Can I do this in my page ie insert headings and text into multipal columns and so on. Is there ref I can use to configure and copy in?

  • While I’m not familiar with Umbraco, I can say that doing the same with WordPress is still quite simple, though admittedly I’m kinda biast.

    Changing the layout of the page ( header position, content position, and featured image position ) is done at the template level in the code.

    Templates in WordPress are located ( typically ) at wp-content/themes/<your-theme-here> these templates follow the template hierarchy.

    By default WordPress doesn’t really provide any sort of table creator. However, in the spirit of WordPress – there’s a plugin for that: https://wordpress.org/plugins/table-maker/

    Hope that helps – good luck!

    Thanks Jerry

    Im trying to build a site CMS using WP, hacking the templates and CSS around. If want to have 3 columns each with a photograph in and text below, can you point me to the right code for this in the codex. I did this years ago but can’t remember how.

    It’s all done within the theme, there are so many theme files I can’t just say “do it here”. Review the template hierarchy and that will tell you what file can load load what page.

    For example if you created a page named “my-awesome-page” – if your theme has a “page-my-awesome-page.php” file you would edit that, if not it falls back to page.php, etc…

    It’s entirely dependent on your theme, there is no one global answer.
