• It’s a heap of PHP code over different files that works together
• Lets you display your posts, comments and the rest of your blog
So where is the Loop• WordPress uses one

How does it work The Loop is really very basic
<?php get_header(); ?>
<?php if (have_posts()) ?> <?php while (have_posts()) ?> <?php the_post();?><?php the_content();?> <?php endwhile; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php get_sidebar();?><?php get_footer(); ?>

<?php if (have_posts()) ?> <?php while (have_posts()) ?> <?php the_post();?><?php the_content();?> <?php endwhile; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php get_sidebar();?><?php get_footer(); ?>
Show the Page Header
How does it work The Loop is really very basic
Show the Page Header
Do the Loop!
<?php get_header(); ?>
<?php if (have_posts()) ?> <?php while (have_posts()) ?> <?php the_post();?><?php the_content();?> <?php endwhile; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php get_sidebar();?><?php get_footer(); ?>

<?php get_sidebar();?><?php get_footer(); ?>
Show the Page Header
Do the Loop!
Show the Page Footer & Side Bar
In Detail <?php if (have_posts()) ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) ?>
<?php the_post();?>
<?php the_content();?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
• Section One - checks information
In Detail <?php if (have_posts()) ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) ?>
<?php the_post();?>
<?php the_content();?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
• Section One - checks information
• Section Two - gets the posts, and more information
In Detail <?php if (have_posts()) ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) ?>
<?php the_post();?>
<?php the_content();?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
• Section One - checks information
• Section Two - gets the posts, and more information
• Section Three - displays the posts and information
And a Little Closer <?php if (have_posts()) ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) ?>
<?php the_post();?>
<?php the_content();?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
• Check that there are posts
And a Little Closer <?php if (have_posts()) ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) ?>
<?php the_post();?>
<?php the_content();?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
• Get information on the post along with secondary information like:
Post TitlePublication DateAuthorCategories
And a Little Closer <?php if (have_posts()) ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) ?>
<?php the_post();?>
<?php the_content();?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
• Then WordPress displays the post with all its formatting information on your blog
And a Little Closer <?php if (have_posts()) ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) ?>
<?php the_post();?>
<?php the_content();?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
• Then WordPress goes and checks for more posts and we start again.
