Create a frontpage?

  • I know this question has been asked a million times, but I’m still not understanding. I need to create a frontpage for my CMS site so the mobile version will work properly. So far, I’ve added a new page and titled it “Home.” Then I copied all the HTML from the current main page and pasted it into the new Home page. It appears that there is no style.css attached. How can I fix this?

    I did, but I’m still not understand how to duplicate my current homepage to create a new one.

    No – you need to add the content for your new front page via the Edit Page option in WordPress.

    Sorry but I don’t know how to go about just duplicating the page. Is there a way to add the stylesheet, or import it?

    OK – let’s start again.

    1. Create a new Page
    2. Add some text content – NOT a whole load of HTML markup from another page
    3. Publish the Page
    4. Navigate to Settings -> Reading and select it as your new front page.

    That’s just it. I don’t know what exactly to copy and paste. The theme came with a home.php and index.php. I tried copying both but it comes up all unstyled. I know once I figure it out, it’ll be super easy but I can’t get to that point. Should I copy the HTML I get from when I go to the site and click View Source?
