I'm new to WordPress. I'm learning Elementor. I used elementor on different pages i've made but i don't know how to use it on the which come's as default where the posts are showing.That page is not visible in the pages section of the Wordpress Dashboard. Can someone help me.
Thank You.
If you are using elementor pro you can modify the default pages like the post and product in the templates -> theme builder, and choose single article for example.
Once modified this will modify all the post design.
This option is only possible on the pro version.
I am coding WordPress theme and need to create custom CSS box like Addition CSS of BasicStore theme. Please tell me how to do that.
enter image description here
You can do this many different ways
I prefer ACF options page (https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/add-ons/options-page/) but I thinks this available only with POR version.
Then you can use WP options page (https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/add_options_page/)
or customizer (https://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Action_Reference/customize_register)
I want to change admin theme in wordpress. I have created a simple admin theme plugin (including CSS and js files) to change some simple CSS, however, there are some layout page need to be totally changed. I am wondering if anyone can help me to find an easy to change the whole layout theme without changing source code. Is it possible to overwrite the layout in the admin theme plugin? If yes, how to do it?
You should create "Theme Option Page" instead of creating plugin for Theme setting like colors and other style in wordpress ! For reference :
https://codex.wordpress.org/Creating_Options_Pages
It will be best option as per my experience in wordpress !
I have just installed WordPress 4.7 and I added some pages.
Then I can see page list in header.
I didn't create any menus in admin panel and why is it?
Do they add menus in header automatically if there is no menu?
I'd say in depends heavily on the theme you're using. If the theme has a feature such as a default menu generated form the entire list of published pages it might be the case.
In order to know which theme you are using, go into the admin then into the Appearance menu and the themes submenu.
If it is a custom theme you bought, you might have to refer to its documentation or go inside the code to check for yourself. If it is a default theme like twenty-sixteen you should be able to modify the behavior from the theme configuration in the admin.
How do I build static pages on wordpress?
I use wordpress, and it keeps looking like a blog, with a navigation bar on the side which I don't like. I want a "static website" like look. with articles, not blog posts.
You have to create a theme for that. In your theme you can make it look like anything you want. If you're blog is on wordpress.com just pick a theme from the gallery.
or if you host your own blog, you can download any of the free themes or make your own! It's pretty easy.

This is a pretty huge question. Very open-ended.
The layout of your site (looking like a blog vs. a static site) is entirely dependent on your theme.
An easy way to get started is to use the default twentyten theme, and add widgets to your sidebar (WP admin > Appearance > Widgets). This will stop the default sidebar from displaying.
Next, you can create a static page in WP Admin > Pages and then use that page as your default page, WP Admin > Settings > Reading > Front page displays...
From there on out, it's really a matter of making your theme look like you want it to. f there's something that WordPress can't do out of the box, search Google or the WordPress Plugin Repository for what you want to do.
