Making a Page appear instead of all my Posts

  • I am working on a site: https://www.phoenixgaming.org/fit

    The site is going semi-smoothly, except for the fact that I can’t make a page appear. If I set up a page (like I have for the About and DJ’s section), then when I click it, it takes me to my posts from the front page.

    Where is my site going wrong? I want the DJ’s tab to be where I click a DJ’s name and it brings up a page where their bios are. But I can’t get those pages to actually show up.

    HELP! I will provide more info if needed, but I need some help ASAP as this project is due asap as well.

    Thanks.

    Any immediate help would be appreciated.

    Thanks.

    In the dashboard under settings–> Reading you can set Front Page to the created page of your choice.

    I don’t want the front page to change. I want that when I click “About” and “DJ’s” it goes to the page that I have created for them, not the same blog format of all my posts.

    Like this is my “About” page – https://phoenixgaming.org/fit/?page_id=2

    And it has my normal posts on it, instead of the text I wrote on the About page in the admin panel.

    I still need help with this. It’s not resolved.

    I appreciate it. Thanks.

    create a page like index and save it as page.php and upload it on server. You can modify however you want. I mean remove side bar or add somethig more in it etc. WP will use this template whenever you will call any page.

    To learn further more about it visit below posted links:

    Hope this will help.

    That’s what I don’t understand about it. I have a page.php, but for some reason it pulls from the posts.

    Here is the code for it, maybe someone can help out?

    <?php get_header(); ?>

<div id="post">

<?php if (have_posts()) : ?><?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

<div class="post-meta" id="main-post">
<h1><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="<?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h1>
<div class="postedby">
<div class="post-status">
<strong><?php _e('Posted by'); ?></strong>&nbsp;<?php the_author_posts_link(); ?> in <?php the_time('F jS, Y') ?>&nbsp;&nbsp;<?php edit_post_link('Edit', '', ''); ?>
</div>
<div class="comment-stats"><?php comments_popup_link('Leave comment', '1 Comment', '% Comments'); ?></div>
</div>
<div class="fileunder">
<div class="atgcat"><?php _e('Posted in'); ?>:&nbsp;<?php the_category(', ') ?>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<?php if(function_exists("UTW_ShowTagsForCurrentPost")) : ?><?php UTW_ShowTagsForCurrentPost("commalist", array('last'=>' and %taglink%', 'first'=>'Tags in: %taglink%',)) ?><?php else : ?><?php if(function_exists("the_tags")) : ?><?php the_tags() ?><?php endif; ?><?php endif; ?> </div>
</div>

<?php if(file_exists(TEMPLATEPATH . '/social.php')): ?>
<?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/social.php'); ?>
<?php else: ?>
<?php endif; ?>

<div class="post-content">
<?php the_content("Read more..."); ?>

</div>
</div>
<span class="article_seperator">&nbsp;</span>

<?php endwhile; ?>

<div class="clear-fix"></div>

<?php if(file_exists(TEMPLATEPATH . '/paginate.php')): ?>
<?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/paginate.php'); ?>
<?php else: ?>
<?php endif; ?>

<div class="clear-fix"></div>

<?php if ('open' == $post->comment_status) : ?>
<?php comments_template(); ?>
<?php else: ?>
<?php endif; ?>

<?php else: ?>

<h2>Sorry the page you looking for did not exist or already removed by author</h2>

<?php endif; ?>

</div>

<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>
