Create a new Post Layout

[wilfriedMarseille]

Hello.
I try to understand how to add a post layout to customise my articles. But i don’t know how to do that …

You have two options

1 – Enable visual composer for posts. If you do that, you may want to turn off ‘display media on posts’. You’ll also have to use custom posts excerpts.

2 – If you know php and wordpress templating, you can edit the template files.

I can select it for page but no for articles.
Where is the folder with article template please ?

There’s not just one file. They are broken up into several files depending on what layout AND post format you have selected.

Put this in your child theme functions.php file. It will put comments in your page source code that will tell you which template files are being called.

COPY CODE

/**
 * show included template files
 */
add_action('all','template_snoop');
function template_snoop(){
    $args = func_get_args();
    if( !is_admin() and $args[0] ){
        if( $args[0] == 'template_include' ) {
            echo "<!-- Base Template: {$args[1]} -->\n";
        } elseif( strpos($args[0],'get_template_part_') === 0 ) {
            global $last_template_snoop;
            if( $last_template_snoop )
                echo "\n\n<!-- End Template Part: {$last_template_snoop} -->";
            $tpl = rtrim(join('-',  array_slice($args,1)),'-').'.php';
            echo "\n<!-- Template Part: {$tpl} -->\n\n";
            $last_template_snoop = $tpl;
        }
    }
}

Just view the page source and search for “Template Part” to see all the template files the page has called. See attached example

So i put the visual composer for post an article.
But in reality my problem is already here because i want change the place of authors meta data, i don’t want see all the information but just the name, add a button like / Disslike or a star notation systeme.
And with the visual composer i see only the text edit, no the others parts like social share …

So if i have understand I have to edit a template files with PHP. And to do this I have to edit more than 1 files because it use template part ?
But i don’t understand wich files i have to create to make a post template.

As I mentioned before, add the code I gave you. It will tell you which pages you need to either change or copy and customize.

You can also look at single.php. That’s the template that’s used for posts. You’ll see in there the other templates that are used to build the page. For example, just before the loop it calls out one of the content templates depending on the post format that has been selected. Lets say it was an image post. Then you’d open up content-image.php.

Sorry it’s an error of Me …
But I put the code `/**
* show included template files
*/
add_action(‘all’,’template_snoop’);
function template_snoop(){
$args = func_get_args();
if( !is_admin() and $args[0] ){
if( $args[0] == ‘template_include’ ) {
echo “<!– Base Template: {$args[1]} –>\n”;
} elseif( strpos($args[0],’get_template_part_’) === 0 ) {
global $last_template_snoop;
if( $last_template_snoop )
echo “\n\n<!– End Template Part: {$last_template_snoop} –>”;
$tpl = rtrim(join(‘-‘, array_slice($args,1)),’-‘).’.php’;
echo “\n<!– Template Part: {$tpl} –>\n\n”;
$last_template_snoop = $tpl;
}
}
}`
And when i look the source code, the template parrts are not inside.

You have fancy quotes in your code. Copy my code again, making sure the single and double quotes dont change.
