 * I like the theme that I am using but I do not like the layout of the blog posts
   page. Can I download a new “posts page” template from somewhere and use that 
   instead? If so, how?!
 * Thank you!!

 * If it’s a matter of just style, you can play with the CSS for the page. If it’s
   really layout….
 * You can make a child theme and edit the blog template.
 * 1) Which file? Install the plugin “show current template” to make that easy.
 * 2) What is a child theme? [https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes](https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes)

 * Then you for that article, really clear and informative. Even as a complete WP
   newbie I should be able follow that.
 * Could you tell me if there are any sample / example blog page php files I could
   use the code from as a starting point? Hopefully I could find one that looks 
   the way I want and pinch most of it…

 * I almost always build my themes from [http://underscores.me](http://underscores.me)—
   it’s sort of a model of WP best practices.
