I go over the basics for creating your own theme. I keep it simple and to the point, so it is easy for everyone to follow and understand. Just the basics, an introduction to creating custom themes. Would cover going from Photoshop to HTML to a WordPress theme.<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n\t\t\t<div id=\"wcorg-session-385\" class=\"wcorg-session\" >\n\t\t\t\t<h2>\n\t\t\t\t\tCustom Layouts Without Using Page Templates\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wcorg-session-description\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"wcpt-session-meta\">Presented by <a href=\"http:\/\/profiles.wordpress.org\/chipbennett\/\">Chip Bennett<\/a> in Specialization Training.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<img alt='' src='https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/7d256f7b605361e4dc402138e2896ff727d2a13d669f1420a8644d12a90bb7af?s=100&#038;d=mm&#038;r=g' class='avatar avatar-100 photo' height='100' width='100' \/>\t\t\t\t\t<p>Custom Layouts Without Using Page Templates Often, Themes use custom page templates to add layout options for static pages; but custom page templates are actually intended to be used for custom content, rather than for custom layouts. And by using custom page templates to define custom layouts, custom layouts are limited to static pages. Single blog posts don&#8217;t feel the love. This session will show you how to use custom post meta data and the body_class filter to define custom layouts for both static pages and single blog posts. As a bonus, this session will show you how to use custom post metaboxes, rather than forcing users to deal with custom fields.<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div><!-- .wcorg-sessions -->\n\n\t\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":6651760,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"page-templates\/front-page.php","meta":{"_crdt_document":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-792","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/PheWtW-cM","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nashville.wordcamp.org\/2013\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/792","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nashville.wordcamp.org\/2013\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nashville.wordcamp.org\/2013\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nashville.wordcamp.org\/2013\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6651760"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nashville.wordcamp.org\/2013\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=792"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/nashville.wordcamp.org\/2013\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/792\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":161076,"href":"https:\/\/nashville.wordcamp.org\/2013\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/792\/revisions\/161076"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nashville.wordcamp.org\/2013\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=792"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
