Make a simple Wordpress archive page - wordpress

I want to create a simple Wordpress archive page exactly like on this website:

How can I do this?
Thank you.

Your question is too generic. If you want to create a page exactly like that, read tutorials and practice your html and css skills to achieve the output you want.

Grabbing the HTML within a div / class / id from another website

I'm currently creating a website using Wordpress. On one of the pages I want to extract news articles from another website, but I don't want to use iframe (I want to style it with css), nor do I want the entire page, just what's within the text of the article.
I'm pretty new to coding (which is one of the reason why I'm using wordpress), so I'm not sure how to go about it. I've looked around online, but the answers are either different from what I need, or they're far beyond my understanding. If there's some sort of wordpress plugin that does the job for me, that'd be great, but otherwise I'd be grateful to be pointed in the right direction.
Thanks.
Look for RSS feed, it might contain the content you need and its easier to grab things from RSS than from HTML. Or simply download the page via any programming language into object and find the element with either REGEX or Xpath.
Or use WordPress WebScraper plugin: Here

Add fields to comment section on Wordpress

I'm building a very simple site on wordpress.com and would like to know how to add fields to my comments. I'm not building it from scratch, I'm using one of the free existing themes. Can I do that? Do you guys know of any plugins?
Thank you!

URL images after migrating website to wordpress

I want to implement my static website to wordpress just for practice and learning this stuff.
My images not loading because my original url is like: src="/images/logo.png" and now in my local wordpress url looks like: http://localhost/images/logo.png but should be: http://localhost/wp-content/themes/mytheme/images/logo.png
Have you any idea for this case? I can do it with find and replace in sublime but I'm wonder it there is a better way to fix it.
Thank you for your response!
A simple find and replace in your text editor is probably the simplest solution in this case. If your images were added in the CMS itself then you could use SQL instead.
You can use a WordPress plugin like this:

Wordpress or Customize back end?

Hello guys im trying to create a student portal for my thesis i want to know what'
s the best backend, Wordpress or create your own back end? Im starting from the scratch and im new to html and css. Please can someone give me suggestions or ideas? Thanks guys.
Wordpress is designed for organizing content, like blogs, static content or shops, not handling users registration, interactivity, or walled-off content. It might be possible to accomplish this with Wordpress, but it won't be fast, elegant or cheap. I would suggest looking at a custom HTML solution with a mix of libraries to handle your requirements.

Add Additional Fields when Creating a Post within Wordpress Dashboard

All,
I'm trying to create additional fields and I've done a little research on this already and found that you should use the add_meta_box().
However, I looked at the wordpress Codex but I'm not sure where I should implement this. Here is the link to that:
http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/add_meta_box
I'm not sure which file I need to alter to add a simple text box. Can someone point me in the right direction to what file to update and what is a good way to go about doing this?
Ideally, I'd like to save this into a table. Is it better to create a custom table for this for upgrades of Wordpress? If you have any pointers on how to save the data that would be great as well!
Thanks so much for any advice you might have! I appreciate it!
You can also use this plugin.
this is easy to use.
