    I’m looking to create a “subpage” that is a listing of only article titles (much like a newsboard – instead of the default, which is blog-style) ….

    What’s the easiest way to go about doing this?

    My site is: https://www.insidethe8.com

    Correct me if I’m wrong, but doing that would display only article titles on my Default/Home/Main page. That’s not what I’m looking to do.

    I’m looking to create a seperate “Page” (like “About Us”) that would be a listing of just the article titles.

    Not necessarily. I meant to delete it in the template file that is used to display that list.

    However, if it is about a Page – it becomes more complicated: Pages are not meant to display multiple posts, so you will have to mess around more with the code. Unfortunately, I am not a coder.

    Is this somehow possible with RSS?

    I really want to create an “alternative view” for my visitors where they can view the site in blog-form (default) or view it in “newsboard-form” where its just a listing of the headlines w/no pictures or descriptions

    Anybody?

    Sure… You will need a custom template – look here for how-to:

    You can start by copying index.php, removing the loop from it and using get_posts() to display only the titles:
    https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Template_Tags/get_posts

    After that just make a new page and use your template…

    Anther possibility … You could tweak the srg_clean_archives plugin to do what you want. It displays a list of posts by title and date (beginning with most recent) and may be mounted on a page.

    My head hurts, I appreciate the help but I’m not really understanding how to do this :-/

    Holy crap I sorta got it https://insidethe8.com/?page_id=15

    Now how do I put that inside the site’s normal header and footer? I’m gonna try to figure it out but any hints would be helpful!! ??

    Yep, looks right. That took you exactly 11 min to do, not bad ??
