How to customize posts in WordPress by using HTML and CSS?










0














I've tried to find the information on the Internet and stackoverflow, but there is nothing about it.



So I've migrated my website(html,css,js) to WordPress(index.php,header.php,footer.php etc) and I can't figure out how to change a view of posts before adding them to my site.



I can see 4 ways of doing that:



1)Download WP plugin to add and customize posts.
But I'll only be able to customize it by using the admin area, I can't do it with HTML and CSS, very few options(color,picture etc)



2)Create a separate file(sidebar.php) and add to it my posts.
But if my client wants to add posts himself, he won't be able to do that, and again very few options.
example



3)Use the standard "Posts-Add New" in the admin area.
But in that case, I can't figure out how to cusomize it, what shall I do?Go into the "wp-admin" folder which is in the WordPress file and find HTML,CSS which are responsible for changing posts view and change them? Because if I don't change them, this happens example



4) Migrate my website to WordPress by using a blank theme example.
There is a posts page(posts.php,I don't remeber how it's called exactly) and try to find a code snippet which is responsible for a posts view



My question is how to change a view of posts in WordPress? And this is what I want to make example link to the website

Your question is quite broad so my answer will be broad as well. Option 4 is what I do when developing WP sites, but using Understrap + Understrap child themes (it is Bootsrap 4 based and I love this). I receive and empty theme (no styles) with couple of page + layout templates for start. From this point when you have your empty theme you can start adding your custom template files and style it as you want. You'll need to spend some time in order to understand how to add custom CSS + JS files inside the functions.php
and depending of your php skills some time in order to how to output your posts/pages content.
