If you saw my post from last week looking at full-site editing you might wonder what it’s like. And if you’re lazy/busy like me, you probably haven’t yet made a point of giving it a run-through on your own. So I really appreciated that WPShout friend Eric Karkovack took the time to install and write up the experience of fooling around with the Q theme.
I recommend you give the whole post a read-over, as he covers a number of thoughts and ideas around full-site editing I’d not considered. But this particularly caught my eye:
One thing to note is that, at this point, it appears custom templates will need to follow the WordPress template hierarchy naming conventions. That is, the slug of a custom template should match the name of its corresponding purpose within your theme (without the .php at the end).
For example, if you want to build a template to be used on your home page, its slug should be named
front-page. Want to target the About Us page (yoursite.com/about-us/)? A template with the slug ofpage-about-uswill do the trick.
I guess maybe the death of WPHierarchy.com isn’t presently imminent. ?
