Modify landing page

[rtibbs4]

Hi, I would like to modify the landing page so that it looks like a normal page with the header, search and footer. I see someone asked below but the solution didn’t work for me. I think you have to implement that each time you create a page which I don’t want to do. I basically want to change it permanently so I can set my idx results to the landing page and have it full width.

Any help appreciated.

I would also like to have my idx results on the homepage and have it full width. That’s exactly what the client wants. It never occurred to me to ask if I could modify WA theme this way, I assumed I’d have to use another theme. So it would be great if there is a mod to post on this.

Such a pretty theme!

I’m actually not looking to put the IDX on the home page. I basically want a full page template and since the landing page is already saved as a template I thought modifying it would be easier for me than creating a new template and involving functions and such. Plus the functions file scares the crap out of me from past failures.

O.k figured that out. All I did was open the landing page in notepad. Remove all of the things that noted “remove” header, footer etc and then renamed it and saved to the same folder.

Perfect! I was just typing a reply but you beat me to it 🙂 Yes, that is best method. You can rename it and it will show in your Page Template list for selecting each time you make a new Page.
