Mixing Themes

  • I have designed two different themes and need to mix them into my website. They are both similar but different. Is there a way.

    Or should I do something different, here is why?

    I want my homepage to look a certain way so I would like to embed just the blogs into my homepage (A template with no header, sidebars, etc.). Then for the blog pages I would like to use the 2nd template which has all the sidebars, headers, etc. Is there a way to do this?

    Thanks for the FAST response. Looks like I can make that work.

    I’ve been looking at the programming more closely. Is there a GET command just to pull up the content/Blogs like there is for the links as shown below?

    <?php get_links_list(); ?>

    No, but you can still use conditional tags to do this. Just do something in your index.php file that’s like so:

    <?php if (is_home()) {
    <!-- do not show the sidebar -->
    <?php } else { get_sidebar(); } ?>
    ...put in your blog loop code here

    That way, if it sees the home page, the sidebar will *not* be there. But on any other page within the site, it will.
