Following on from my last blog post covering \u2018how to post<\/a>\u2019,\u00a0welcome to part 2 of your WordPress training guide. In this guide, we will cover \u2018Pages\u2019 and \u2018Custom Sections\u2019 within a WordPress website.<\/p>\n

Pages<\/h2>\n

The pages on your website will be made up of multiple \u2018templates\u2019 formed from the designs that we\u2019ve created.
\nThe development team create pages using \u2018Custom Fields\u2019 which mirror the structure of the designs, and then they code the front-end HTML and CSS on top of the backend workings in order to integrate the site you can see within the CMS.
\nPages are typically laid out in the backend in a tabbed fashion \u2013 something like this:
\n\"Wordpress<\/p>\n

It\u2019s split logically into the different sections of the page, with the ability to edit all the key components you can see on the front-end like so:
\n\"Fifteen
\nWe try and keep the page elements as simple as possible to edit and allow as much flexibility as possible as well. This allows our clients the opportunity to control as much of their website as possible, without them having to worry about breaking anything, as the text formats automatically to match the style we\u2019ve created.
\nOn some occasions, websites require a bit more flexibility and movement, this is why we can also build elements such as a \u2018page builder\u2019 this will allow the flexibility to build up the website, new pages and other elements using various components of the website.
\n\"Page
\nThis works by allowing the admin to select an element to add, and then similar to the standard way of working, it will give the options for that section for the admin to populate:
\n\"Icon
\nThis is becoming an increasingly popular method of development and allows admins to have much more flexibility across the site, so you can have pages which are as long or as short as they need to be, and the styling is kept consistent. \u00a0<\/p>\n

Custom Sections<\/h2>\n

Custom sections will depend on your website, and its functionality, it can include as many or as little sections as you need to!
\nCustom sections can include things like careers, team members, case studies, infographics, testimonials, resources and more!
\n\"Custom
\nWhen we create these pages, we try and make them as consistent and similar to edit and use as main pages throughout the website, to make it as easy as possible for you to edit and update the website.
\n\"Case
\nCustom posts generally feed into various areas of the main website, and instead of updating elements on individual pages \u2013 it\u2019s often easier to uploaded them into a specific area, select or give the post relevant categories and tags, and then we can code the site to do the rest!<\/p>\n

Each website we build is unique in its layout and behind the scenes workings, but as part of your training, we will walk you through the core elements of how to use your website, and also produce a training video that shows you where all the necessary elements are.<\/p>\n
