Tutorial: Create a Custom Wordpress Page With Different Template

Recently I needed to create a page in Wordpress that didn’t have the sidebar on it. I still wanted the sidebar on all the other pages, just not that one (i.e. for an option or sales page).

It took me a while to find the solution, but the one I found works like a charm. Takes a bit of programming knowledge, but not too bad.

Here is a quick video on how to go about doing it and a custom.php to get you started. Credit goes to Moses at wpthemesplugins.com for the solution. My video just walks you through each step to make it a bit easier.

Sorry, I would embed the video tutorial here, but it is not allowed

In a nutshell, here are the steps:

1. Create a custom.php file in your favorite text editor. I use Notepad ++

2. Add this code to the beginning of your custom.php file

<?php

/*Template Name: custom*/?>

3. Copy the contents of your page.php file from your current theme.

4. Paste the code below what you just added to the custom.php

5. Find the code that says and delete it.

6. save custom.php

7. FTP custom.php to your current theme folder under wp-content>themes>(whatever theme you are using)

8. Create a new page. Under Advanced options, choose Page Template > custom.

9. Thats it!

If it sounds complicated, it really isn't. In the video, I will walk you through it in about 5 minutes.

Celestial Navigation in a NutshellCelestial Navigation in a Nutshell - Celestial Navigation in a Nutshell - by Hewitt Schlereth Practical considerations aside, there is something soul-satisfying about looking to the sky to plot one's course. And despite the proliferation of electronic navigational devices, celestial navigation remains an essential tool for those who do not wish to be caught short when modern technology fails. In this easy-to-use guide, Hewitt Schlereth explains clearly and concisely how to navigate any stretch of sea using only a hand-held sextant, a watch, a plotting sheet and a copy of the Nautical Almanac. The basic process is simple: take a sight with a sextant, establish a secondary reference or benchmark sight, compare the two sights and plot the result of the comparison on a chart. Schlereth demonstrates how to take sights by the sun, moon, stars and planets, discussing the advantages and disadvantages of each method. The reader is taken carefully through several examples and situational illustrations, making this a most effective self-teaching guide. About the Author: Hewitt Schlereth is an accomplished sailor who has written several books on navigation, including Commonsense Coastal Navigation and Latitude and Longitude by Noon Sight. He is also a frequent contributor to Cruising World magazine. He currently resides in Milford, Connecticut. Paperback. 128 pgs. 2000 Pub.
