Thanks. I’m really stuck with this. All I want to do is create a page that will display the latest blog-posts and I want that page to have the same header and footer as every other page on the site. It seems this is not possible.

I’ve tried at three different approaches:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3456006/adding-a-second-loop-to-a-wordpress-theme-on-a-separate-page

https://upthemes.com/blog/2011/07/how-to-build-a-custom-page-template-for-blog-posts/

Nothing has worked so far.

This is the blog page I ended up with (doesn’t look anything like the rest of my site):

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

Thanks. I solved it by removing this code from footer.php:

[ Moderator note: Code fixed, please wrap code in backticks or use the code button. ]

<div id="colophon">

<?php
	/* A sidebar in the footer? Yep. You can can customize
	 * your footer with four columns of widgets.
	 */
	get_sidebar( 'footer' );
?>

			<div id="site-info">
				<a>" title="<?php echo esc_attr( get_bloginfo( 'name', 'display' ) ); ?>" rel="home">
					<?php bloginfo( 'name' ); ?>
				</a>
			</div><!-- #site-info -->

			<div id="site-generator">
				<?php do_action( 'twentyten_credits' ); ?>
				<a>" title="<?php esc_attr_e( 'Semantic Personal Publishing Platform', 'twentyten' ); ?>"><?php printf( __( 'Proudly powered by %s.', 'twentyten' ), 'WordPress' ); ?></a>
			</div><!-- #site-generator -->

		</div><!-- #colophon -->

I’m still getting some widgets that belong to the ‘Primary Widget Area’ (the ‘Share Us’ and ‘Like Us’ buttons) appearing in the Footer which is weird. I’m trying to figure out how to remove them:

I checked in Appearance : Menus and I only have one menu activated (in the header).

Thanks again!

Thanks for that. I had a look at the Appearance : Widgets area and the four ‘Footer Widget Areas’ are all empty.

So then I went into Firebug and found the code that is causing it:

<div id=“footer” role=”contentinfo”>

I would like to delete that line of code, but cannot find it. Can you tell me which template file that would be in?

Thanks!
