In WordPress, I’ve been installing and using various themes, including 2013, Roots, and now BlankSlate. I noticed that now that I’ve activated BlankSlate, the function get_template_directory()
used in front-page.php is still returning the path to the Roots theme directory. My current front-page.php looks like this.
<?php get_header(); ?>
<section id="content" role="main">
<img class="frontpageimg" src="<?php get_template_directory(); ?>/images/slogan-2.png">
<h4>In the Los Angeles area? </h4> <p>Ask about free demo loaners! </p>
<h4>We also take mail orders.</h4> On all orders, there is a 30-day return policy!</p>
<img src = "<?php get_template_directory(); ?>/assets/img/cables-ers-absorber-700.jpg"/></a>
<img src = "<?php get_template_directory(); ?>/assets/img/blueprint-silencers-v2-700.jpg"/></a>
<img src = "<?php get_template_directory(); ?>/assets/img/brav-front-page-700.jpg"/></a>
<a href="contact" class="btn btn-lg btn-orange">Contact Us</a>
</section>
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>
Use:
<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>
Instead of:
<?php get_template_directory(); ?>
first of all
