Creating Your Own WordPress Theme - Intro

by Norhafidz on May 11, 2008

I finally get a chance to post on this blog after a long and busy examination week. Despite being busy, I a bit of my time learning how to create my own WordPress theme. Today, I finally understand why xhtml and CSS is a combination of an important language ;) . I would like to share with you guys what I learned so far.

Basically, a WordPress theme should comprise of 4 basic php files and a css file:

1) header.php

2) sidebar.php

3) index.php

4) footer. php

5) styles.css

Learn more about xhtml.That’s all for the intro part. I’ll be posting more about coding your own WordPress in the next post.

I’ll be going to Tioman today, In case you missed my post, you can check the post about tioman. So I won’t have a chance to update the blog for the coming days, 3 days to be exact. I would be glad to post some of my experience in Tioman. Make sure you be here for the next update!
