<div dir="ltr"><div>Well normally you'd have to create a page-*.php file inside your theme folder. So it would get lost anyway, you cant switch page-*.php templates between themes.<br><br></div><div>My main goal is to save the user the trouble of creating page-*.php template file, typing in the template name & the query params. Plus, if the template markup changes, the user wont have to update all of their page-*.php files accordingly, manually. I cant see any downsides compared to the default behaviour in this, if you do please do tell.<br>

<div dir="auto"><div>I think that a custom page creater sounds like plugin territory. It's something that would be more beneficial if it didn't get lost when you moved to a new theme. Having a possible custom post type formatted in your theme might be okay if you aren't defining the custom type (I.e. Woo commerce layout in theme but not incorporating any of the plugin functions)</div>

<div><div> I think this shouldnt fall into plugin territory since there would be no content loss upon deactiivation. If we are to exclude every "functionality" from themes, what are the purpose of themes, just picking colors ?<br>
<br>For example I was preparing a "custom page creator", you would choose from select boxes as such;<br></div>I want to create a page that displays "posts | custom_p_type" from "cat1-cat2" ordered by"ID | date" etc... you get the idea.<br>
<br></div>Creating page-templates are a pain for the average user. This "functionality" i am planning not only makes it easier; but also prevents data loss. Because the creator wont create new page-* files but instead it will use the default page.php file and get the query parameters from an option.<br>
<br></div>Would that too also fall into plugin territory ?<br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2014/1/21 Emil Uzelac <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:emil@uzelac.me" target="_blank">emil@uzelac.me</a>></span><br>
