Wordpress - Converting static page to simple one page theme - wordpress

I need to convert simple one page web to the Wordpress side.
All I need to do is be able to change texts, not layout.
Page has a sections. How should I develop the page, to make each section text editable.
As far as I understand, in wordpress menu I will create several pages, which will represent each section in my page.
but how can I do that ? Thank you so much!

How to have single-slug behave like a normal page in WordPress?

I'm making a website in WordPress, and I'm using a plugin ACF PRO. I'm doing the entire site with flexible content, so the WordPress site is like a page builder.
Everything is fine, however, I came to a point where I need to have same functionality for single-[custom-post-type], so I can "Add row", header, footer etc... on it, but I can't figure out on how to do it.
I know that it's possible, because e.g if you look at this site here: https://rolleragency.co.uk/our-projects/
You can see that it works. I know they are using flexible content because I worked on that site and I did there what I wanted. I can't remember how to do that.
I think I had to use a Tempate Page? Or? I can't remember.
THe site is built entirely on flexible content, so everything there is modular and it's like a drag and drop, but how do I do that on single-slug?
You have to create a page template, yes.
So something like page-projects.php then in WordPress admin you would have a page called Projects.
The template you created should be automatically applied to this page. If it doesn't for some reason you can choose which template WP should use on the right side when editing a page.
Now, you can add whatever code you need to the page-projects.php. And also any fields you may need for that page you can set up in ACF by telling ACF to apply those fields to pages that use projects template.
This is how I would and did do it on several occasions :)

Custom Page Templates in WordPress to show Content in specific layout

I want to create a custom page template in WordPress which shows Image Slideshow and then a video below it and finally some text - till now what I am able to do is play with sidebar, footer, header.
I can either remove them or keep them in my custom page templates but what I want to do is play with the page contents.
The Admin user should be able to see these sections in the Page Editor (WYSIWYG) when they choose the Template from the drop-down, so that they can accordingly add the correct content in correct place holders
Something like the attached screen-shot is showing
Is this possible in WordPress
Yes! It's possible to implement this! you can use https://codecanyon.net/item/visual-composer-page-builder-for-wordpress/242431 or https://wordpress.org/plugins/siteorigin-panels/ plugin.
The first plugin allows you to create different page layout and save it. It also allows admin to choose page layout that admin has saved previously.
The second page builder plugin allows you to create template same way and allows admin to clone one page layout to another one.
Hope this will help you!

Home page manageable content in wordpress

I have a WP website which has a home with a top banner and 2 more controllable panel like here.
My question is what is the best way to keep this controllable via admin?
The way I did it was to create two categories by the names "Latest Updates" and "New in 2013!" and then coded it such that the posts coming under the categories gets displayed in their respective panels on the home page. The image as usual controlled via the Featured Image of the post. A pretty basic setup to manage its content via posts to keep the layout intact and at the same time do the task.
I had suggestions where we should keep it right there in WP editor for control i.e. put all the div / ul / li etc. right there in the WP editor using the text part and have the admin control it right from there.
I need to know which method is better for implementation i.e. managing via posts like it is now or keep it right there in the editor and put HTML content in the editor.
All recommendations much appreciated.
Your first one method is correct ,easy and safe.
Safe Because,If accidentally any change in editor then all showing content breaked

Drupal 7 multiple views are shown on one page

I have a custom theme that i have developed. I have developed a few different views. For some reason my blog and colorbox are showing on both the colorbox and blog pages that i have created.

Wordpress News website, multiple layout, category base?

I have a theme, I am html web designer, but I can understand some php / wordpress coding also
I have a wordpress theme & I want to convert it into a news portal
Please guide me, I want to convert it into category base, should be like that
http://www.firstpost.com/ please guide me, how can I do ?
is it archive page or separate category page?
--
http://www.firstpost.com/category/world
when browsing category page, you can see there are different post layouts
without any duplicate post
please guide me
You can simply make a main menu containing links to your categories. This will load in the page you set as post-page (ie. the page that contains your posts).
Go to Appearance - Menu. Create a menu and set it as the main menu.
instead of ticking the boxes for linking to pages, create menu links like www.domain.com/category/cats and www.domain.com/category/dogs
