Wordpress Q....

    Sorry if this sounds ignorant but got a simple wordpress question... if anyone with better knowledge than me can help would be super grateful....

    I'm building a website based on a child of the starkers theme... currently my homepage is set to default, and displays the latest post...

    I need it to display the latest post as well as a separate video that my client can update himself regularly, independently from anything else on that page...

    Do i need to create a new page and insert a video widget into it that the client can update, or is there a simpler way of doing this directly in index.php? i was thinking i could create a widget area within the index.php page but not sure how to do that...

    all help appreciated...

    Can you not just use the Text box widget, insert it somewhere on the home page, and have the client drop in a new youtube video whenever they need to update?

    • Yeh, widget it, that's the perfect situation they're designed for.mikotondria3
    • yes, should have worked, but sometimes it depends on the theme. sizes for the areas that accept the widgets
