WordPress Themes

WordPress uses Themes to Layout your Pages and Make your site look pretty, but there are also a lot of features in each Template that are there to Blog, which of course makes sense.. 

But you want your Website to be as clean as possible without traces of Blogging.
So there are a few files you have to change to improve you site, I will talk you through the changes.

Please don’t make these changes if you want a Blogpage integrated into your WordPress website!!

Some Knowledge of File editing should make this a lot easier, but most of it can be done via the Theme editor within the WordPress Administrator Panel. 

I will also make your live a little easier by pointing out a few allready Search Engine Optimized WordPress Themes.
You will also find some sample page headers to use or modify for your own Website.

So what to look for in you WordPress themes?

- Remove all references to Author, Date and Time of posting and possibility to comment, mostly this will show up with coding like:

 <h5>by <?php the_author(’nickname’); ?> on <?php the_time(’F jS, Y’) ?><!– by <?php the_author() ?> –> &middot; <?php comments_popup_link(’No Comments’, ‘1 Comment’, ‘% Comments’); ?></h5>

You have to hunt done these lines in all your template .php files. start with the index.php, page.php and single.php files.
If you cleaned that files, you will have about 90% of the template done.
