Create a Custom WordPress Page Template Without Code

Want a website that doesn’t look like everyone else’s? You’re in the right place. If you’re using a basic WordPress theme, your site might be blending in when it could be standing out.

Let’s fix that with a custom WordPress page template. Keep reading to learn how to build one and how our WordPress design services can do it for you—faster and better.

Why Standard WordPress Themes Hold You Back

By default, WordPress uses general templates. These are pre-built, one-size-fits-all layouts. Good for beginners, bad for business.

Here’s what happens when you stick with standard themes:

  • Zero uniqueness: Your site looks like hundreds of others.
  • Low user engagement: Visitors leave fast.
  • No strong brand image: You don’t stand out. You’re just okay.
  • Fewer conversions: Your message gets lost in the clutter.

Want a website that reflects your brand, message, and goals? A custom page template is your next best step.

Two Easy Ways to Build a Custom Page Template

You can build a custom WordPress page in two ways—using WordPress’ Site Editor or a drag-and-drop page builder like Divi.

Option 1: Use the WordPress Full Site Editor

This option works if you’re using a block-based theme. With the Site Editor, you can add a new template from your dashboard.

  1. Log in to your WordPress admin area.
  2. Go to Appearance > Editor > Templates.
  3. Click on Add New Template.

Choose where the template applies, like ‘All Categories’ or just one specific page.

WordPress will ask if you want to use a pre-made pattern. We say skip that. Start from scratch for something truly original.

Use blocks to build your custom header, footer, and main content. It’s a simple way to get more control—even if it’s still limited.

Tip: The Site Editor is good for basic changes, but it doesn’t allow full creative freedom.

Option 2: Build with Divi for Unlimited Design Control

If you want full design freedom without code, use the Divi Builder. It works on top of WordPress and comes with its own set of tools you can use to build unique, branded templates.

Here’s what you can do with Divi:

  • Use drag-and-drop to build custom headers, footers, and layouts
  • Edit in real-time as you design
  • Import ready-to-use layout packs
  • Apply templates to product pages, blog indexes, and more

Step-by-Step: Build a Template in Divi

Got Divi? Great. Let’s walk through the basics.

1. Open Divi’s Theme Builder

From your dashboard, go to Divi > Theme Builder. Click “Add New Template” and choose where to apply it—like All Category Pages.

2. Add a Custom Body

Click “Add Custom Body” and choose to build from scratch or import a layout. You can tweak colors, spacing, and content easily.

3. Include Dynamic Content

Divi lets you add content that adapts. For example, a category title that changes depending on the page. Turn on “Posts For Current Page” to show only category-relevant posts.

4. Save and Preview

Save your work. Preview the design. Publish when ready. Simple as that.
