    How can I create a custom WP page without header and footer?

    This is for one specific page only, I tried various Google solutions and the “Blank Slate” plugin but nothing has worked – I get to see a custom template in the page template dropdown but when viewing the page itself nothing has changed.

    So I’m assuming the problem is connected with the Kadence theme?

    WP version – 6.6.2, Kadence Virtue template (free)

    Thank you for any suggestions.

  • Hi,

    I’m glad you reached out.

    The Virtue theme has a “Landing Page” template which removes the header and footer. In the page editor, just select the “Landing” template.

    Thanks and I hope this helps

    Thanks for the response.

    Yes I was expecting to find such a template as you describe but that particular page edit option does not seem to exist on my site – I’ve included a link below to a screenshot showing my page edit dropdown list. I’m using the free version of the Virtue template, is the “Landing page” option just a feature of the premium version?

    Additionally, I also see that when I add a “Latest Posts” widget to the Primary sidebar the article title is not visible, just the image and a thin line. Have gone through every config setting that I can find to no avail. I can see where to toggle various content on/off but nothing has succeeded in showing the title. Same thing when I make a “Category List” widget. Example shown in screenshot below.

    Hi there.

    Apologies for that, the Landing page template is available in the premium theme. Here are documentation posts for your reference:

    The workaround will require custom CSS code:

    .page-id-91320 header, .page-id-91320 footer {
    display: none;
    }

    The page-id CSS class can be seen by doing these steps:

    1. Right-click anywhere on a page.
    2. Look at the <body> HTML tag – https://share.zight.com/yAuekeqm

    This should help you both hide the header and the footer for a specific page.

    Could you give me your website URL so I can better check the issues you’re referring to with the title not showing?

    1) Thanks for info re CSS code workaround, that did the job.

    2) URL https://www.fiofoto.com/national-fun-run-london/

    Bottom block, right hand Primary Sidebar just shows bars where I have placed a “category list “latest posts” widget. This is with Virtue_child theme, (free).

    A category list widget does however work if it is configured as a dropdown.

    Thanks
