Template hell

  • How do I find a template that will give the desired results? I feel that there are so many choices I’m lost and there doesn’t seem to be a magic way to search for function. I’m left asking the community for help.

    Perhaps I can get some ideas based on a static site I created as a place holder? Basically it is a responsive site with 3 frames. one frame that has a full screen background image, a second frame on the bottom that scrolls over the background image with 2 columns and a third frame as a footer. I’d like a bit more editing capability as I’m not a developer and what I created for the place holder wouldn’t allow me to reduce the space between editable regions or between the bottom text and the footer resulting in to much grey area.

    Does anyone have any suggestions for WP templates that could achieve this look? Eventually I want to develop 3-5 pages with a top menu with different background images for each page.

    Thanks!

  • Well, you can’t avoid testing themes and searching for the best, that fits your needs. There are too many options. You have to check firstly some basic features that you may need, like responsiveness (mobile friendly), or the layout etc.
    There aren’t themes that look exactly like what we want to create, you have to find some themes that look friendly to what you want, and then start crossing them out, in order to conclude somewhere.
    Give yourself some time and search ?? That’s my advice.
    Besides that’s a very nice part of creating a WordPress site, enjoy it!

    Do we know if there is a specific name for the type of frame/frames that scrolls from the bottom up covering the background image? The goal is to only cover part of the background image when scrolling is complete.

    Thanks!
