Novice help: Create a new page that replicates my main page

Support
#1

First, I am a Wordpress and X-Pro theme novice! Yes, I am dangerous…

I used the X-Pro “auto shop” sample as my WP design. I have modified the “auto shop” pages to reflect my uses. Really like the “auto shop” sample, and there would be no way, at my present skill level, I would have been able to design such active pages. But I have reached a skill/knowledge hurdle I need help with.

When I create a NEW PAGE in WP, it formats the page with my X Header and theme elements, but it formats it like a “blog” page with “recent posts, recent comments, archives, categories, etc…”. I want the page to be full width like the pages in the “auto shop” sample. When I save a full-width page as a template and then insert that template into the new page, the template only inserts in the content area on the left side, leaving the “blog stuff” to the right.

I cannot figure out how to make a NEW PAGE without that “blog” type format. HELP! Please…

Here is my page so you can see my full-width format.

Hey Robert,

if you havent already figured this out, what you want to do is change the “template” in Wordpress. Easy way on the backend: View All Pages, hit “quick Edit”, and select the template you want (Blank, No Container, header, Footer). Try them all to get a feel for what each one actually represents :slight_smile:
