Grabbing a page from WordPress
- How to hide a page in WordPress?
- How do I then redefine it as a DIV on, say, another page?
Context
I'm trying to get some year-end tax deductions for my freelance business and that's why I'm donating WordPress sites for churches. Now, unfortunately, I've found that a few pastors aren't very computer savvy, and even though WordPress is pretty straightforward about tech guys like you and me, they're a little confused. So I commented "Posts", "Comments", "Plugins", "Widgets", "Users", "Design" and left nothing but "Pages" (New, Edit, Delete) and Media Gallery ". Then I took a theme that showed the Pages tabs at the top of the page, like a normal website.
My hope is to name a specific page like Sidebar1 as its title. However, instead of being shown as a tab, it will be hidden. It will then be redefined as a DIV inside the Home page. If the pastor accidentally deletes sidebar 1, all he has to do is re-create it again and reopen it.
This is not about the Wordpress website, but the Wordpress installation.
I changed admin - I just need to change the interface.
I could figure it out on my own, but for the sake of timing, I wondered if anyone had done this already?
Your help can help me get it done just in time for Christmas for some churches. Thank.
Someone named "greyhoundcode" on another forum answered me, so I thought I'd post it here.
His answer ...
If, for example, you have four pages:
- home
- ABOUT
- Side panel
- Contact
And you intentionally want to exclude the sidebar page from the navigation part of the page, you can exclude it like this:
wp_list_pages('sort_column=menu_order&exclude=3&title_li=');
You can get it on the page where you want to submit it using the wp_query statement.
... This is exactly what I need.
