I need to apply the same content on over 4000 Wordpress pages. Now to make it as easy as possible. I create a single page and designed it with the content. So what I want to do now is create a template out of this page. Is there any possibility to export the page as php code to put it in the theme as a template?
(It hast to be the exact content as the template file)
I am also open-minded for other Ideas to solve this problem. Thanks a lot!
Yes, you can create a template and apply your template to your pages.
With the content that you wish to apply to your pages, create a .php file. At the top of this.php (called say page-mycontent.php) file add this header:
<?php
/* Template Name: My Template */
?>
Now the template will appear in the admin panel for Page - Edit on the right hand side.
Code Changes in header.php and page.php
Your changes are in both the header and the loop. So I suggest creating two templates, one for the header and one for the body.
In your header.php, if you name your header code as header-myheader.php then pull your new header template into header.php like so:
<?php get_header('myheader'); ?>
And similarly add your body code (called mytemplate.php say) into page.php like so:
<?php get_template_part('mytemplate'); ?>

Does anyone know how to move the physical location of a permalink header in wordpress? I dont want it to be the first thing that is seen but rather I want a shortcode item there.
In your page.php you can delete the php function for calling the header ( the_header() ) and put the function to call the shortcode ( do_shortcode() ).
This way the page is not embeding the header.php but get the code of your shortcode at this place of your markup.
Page Template:
You can create a page template in your theme-folder. For this, you can simple duplicate the page.php and call it page-yourname.php. At the top of your page you add the name of the page template:
<?php /* Template Name: Example Template */ ?>
In that file you do the adjustments that you like to do with the shortcode.
https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/template-files-section/page-template-files/
With the template structure of wordpress, the template will automatically be found at the edit screen of your pages. It will be found on the right side under "page attributes".
You can set the template for your individual pages. So your adjustments to the template will only affect your pages, where you selected the template in the page attributes.
I have a working one page website I like to convert into multiple pages in wordpress.
I already successfully created a theme, converted the header, footer, css, js into wordpress, header.php, footer.php, and functions.php by following a tutorial.
Now I'm left with all my html content between the header and footer and want to cut that content up into multiple wordpress pages.
I can do "the_title(); wrapped in php" and make the content while loop to get the first page into a wordpress page, but from then I dont know what to do, to split the next lines of html into other wordpress pages.
You will need create some page templates for your theme. They will look something like this:
page-about.php
<?php
/* Template Name: About Page */
get_header(); ?>
... about page content
<?php get_footer(); ?>
page-contact.php
<?php
/* Template Name: Contact Page */
get_header(); ?>
... contact page content
<?php get_footer(); ?>
Then assign the template in the Wordpress admin, on Edit Page view to the corresponding templates you want to use. You select the template by the name you give it in the comments.
The actual file name of your templates matter. Some views in wordpress are assigned to templates simply by the name of the file. So you will want to use certain naming conventions like page-about.php. More info about templates: https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/basics/template-hierarchy/
How to create two pages with same content?
For example, the first page should be with a header menu and the second page should be without a header menu.
The page of my theme has an options without header
Or I can use two different templates of page, but the content of pages should be the same.
You can read the documentation here.
Create a file, called page-mytemplate.php under your theme directory.
In that file, start with this:
<?php
/*
Template Name: My Custom Page
*/
Create a page, and set the template to My Custom Page.
At here you can do whatever you want.
For the other page, repeat the steps, but just call the other template something different name.
EDIT
When you want to show the same content with different templates, just simple get the content of the page:
$post = get_post($postId);
echo $post->post_title ."<br />";
echo $post->post_content;
You can wrap this with your two template page. See the documentation here
i'm using the twentytwelve theme and i have to write custom content into my example template.
I want to maintain my header content so the main structure is the following
header = id page, wrapper
ex.page = primary, content
footer = close wrapper, close id page
If i have understood correctly, if i want to insert content into the middle of my page i have to do it into my template page (that is a copy of the main page.php), that is in the middle between my header and my footer
For example i want to insert a div into which insert the loop of such category.
The problem is that it displays me nothing, like i've wrote nothing. I can only see the contents if i erase all the originary div, but it's not what i want to do, just because the only div is the page which is my container.
I can't catch what i have to do.
Can you tell me what i forgot to do?
Thanks,
Alex
page.php is a "master" document. header.php, footer.php and (if it exists) sidebar.php are all imported into page.php. Twenty Twelve also uses atomized content templates. You may need to add your div to content-page.php, which is also imported into page.php. content-page.php is used inside the wordpress loop, and encapsulates the code that pulls in the actual article elements from the wordpress database.
If you are trying to add straight HTML to the templates, ensure that you are not adding code between the php brackets:
<?php // don't add html here ?>
<div>do add html here</div>
Depending upon the type of wordpress page you are trying to display, you may need to consult the Wordpress Template hierarchy to determine the proper Wordpress naming convention for your template file (the copy of page.php).
Technically speaking, everything in content-page.php can be put into page.php replacing the get_template_part function. All the 'content' pages are totally not required and can be combined into one file if you want simplicity.
In my opinion, it's easier to start from scratch when learning Wordpress rather than try and re-work something. The default wordpress themes don't lend themselves to be beginner friendly.
I have page I want to display the page in different style (not as the content.php file ) so now I made copy the content.php file and just modified it. I want to display only for one page and other pages should display like content.php . So how can I change the index page to display the particular as new content-list page. My page name is News and it should be display like content-list.php.
For display indiviual page you have to make a Template for that page and from
Dashboard-->Pages open the page where you want to display that template, on right hand side you have seen TAMPLATE-->DEFAULT TEMPLATE, select template you have created...
Syntax for new template
<?php
/*Template Name:abc
*/
?>
<?php get_header();?>
<!--------------------------------------->
CONTENT FOR PAGE
<!--------------------------------------->
<?php get_Footer();?>
I don't know about which file you're referring to as content.php
I have page i want display the page in different style
So, if you want to display a page with a different style, you should have a look at WordPress Template Hierarchy.
You can create another page template, use custom files like header-{name}.php and footer-{name}.php and use get_header() and get_footer() with the appropriate arguments(the {name} you mentionned to call these files.
