Introduction

Pages are like Posts, except they can do much more than Posts, and they live outside of the normal blog chronology. You can use Pages to organize and manage any amount of content.

Terms Used in this Article

For clarity, throughout this document:

  • "page", with a lowercase "p", will describe any HTML document on the web.
  • "Page", with a capital "P", will refer to a "WordPress Page", the feature of WordPress that this wiki page details. Use "Page", in bold, when the use of the term is ambiguous.

What is a Page?

Posts are time-oriented objects. You write them at a specific time, and that time defines their context.

Pages, on the other hand, are most often used to present information about yourself or your site that is somehow timeless - information that is always applicable. For example, you might write a Post describing what you did or thought on a particular morning ("Breakfast was good"), but on a Page you might write something whose context is less time dependent ("This site is about breakfast").
