Creating a basic HTML landing page for WordPress

 Creating a basic HTML landing page for WordPress involves creating a new file with a .html extension and then adding the necessary HTML structure. However, keep in mind that WordPress primarily uses PHP for its templates. If you want to integrate a static HTML landing page into WordPress, you might need to create a custom template file. Here's a simple example:

  1. Create a new HTML file: Create a new file using a text editor (like Notepad, Visual Studio Code, etc.) and save it with a .html extension. For example, landing-page.html.

  2. HTML Structure: Add the following HTML structure to your landing-page.html file:

html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
    <title>Your Landing Page Title</title>
    <!-- Add your CSS styles or external stylesheet links here -->
</head>
<body>

    <!-- Your landing page content goes here -->
    <header>
        <h1>Welcome to Our Landing Page</h1>
        <p>Discover amazing content about celebrities, lifestyle, romance, movies, videos, songs, and more!</p>
    </header>

    <section>
        <!-- Add more sections and content as needed -->
    </section>

    <footer>
        <p>Contact us at <a href="mailto:info@example.com">info@example.com</a></p>
    </footer>

    <!-- Add your JavaScript scripts or external script links here -->

</body>
</html>

  1. Upload to WordPress: Upload the landing-page.html file to your WordPress theme directory or any location you prefer.

  2. Create a Custom Page Template (optional): To integrate the HTML landing page into WordPress, you might want to create a custom page template. Copy the content of your theme's page.php file and create a new template file (e.g., template-landing-page.php). Replace the loop part with the content of your landing-page.html file.

php
<?php
/*
Template Name: Landing Page Template
*/

get_header();
?>

<!-- Add your custom HTML content here -->
<?php include('landing-page.html'); ?>

<?php
get_footer();
?>

  1. Create a WordPress Page: In the WordPress admin dashboard, create a new page (Pages -> Add New) and select the "Landing Page Template" from the Page Attributes section on the right.

  2. Publish: Publish the page, and you should see your custom HTML landing page when you visit that WordPress page.

Remember to replace placeholder content with your actual content and customize the styles and scripts according to your needs. This is a simple example, and depending on your requirements, you may need additional adjustments or considerations.
