You could split the three sections into three separate posts/pages and maintain them individually just like every other post/page.
Hi Joseph,
Thanks for the response. Do you have any resources/links on how to do this? I have been creating individual templates for the custom pages in question which I will want to work like a CMS, likely the only page which will be different will be my blog page. Can’t his be done using a plugin?
Cheers,
Paul
To start off, have a look at the The Loop. You could do a triple loop for the three sections and I’m pretty sure you can find plenty of other resources through Google.
I personally don’t use many plugins so I don’t know if there is one for this purpose but I don’t see why not.
Hi Guys,
I have been looking through the “loop” principle outlined by joseph, but I’m still not really 100% sure how to achieve my goal. Basically I want to enable me/others to log into my site (and future sites) and be able to edit certain sections of a page using the “page text editor” without requiring any techniqal coding knowledge. Im struggling to find and guides or people’s experiences achieving this, though it must have been done thousands of times over.
Many Thanks
Paul
Hi Paul
You might be able to achieve what you want using a wordpress framework theme?
These enable you to have different sections, columns, boxes, features that can be maintained separately – even easily moved, as they are ‘self-contained’
examples – pagelines platform pro, headwaythemes, genesis
You can have a loot at http://perishablepress.com/press/2006/11/22/perishable-press-triple-loop-for-wordpress/
The article was published years ago but the code is still the same.
If you’re not good with PHP then perhaps a theme would be the better option.
i am totally agreed with you. ya it is content management systems. but you have to do split a section wise process so you will easy to get better output.
