PSD, also known for the Photoshop Documents created on Adobe Photoshop, are graphic projects created with a few photoshop elements that consist of visuals like layouts, images, and backgrounds without any HTML and CSS languages inputs.
PSD templates usually serve as designed layered images, which are helpful for editing without changing the other elements in the design. You can manipulate elements according to your requirement. WordPress has a systematic file structure that is compulsory to follow.
When you involve PSD templates on your WordPress website, you do nothing but upload images that get executed seamlessly without any bugs or issues. Therefore, there is no hassle in uploading PSD templates to any WordPress website.
PSD files usually turn your website into a customizable theme with the addition of functionalities or a ready-made website design on your hands. This group of files recites the appearance of your website on WordPress. From small images to your hyperlinks, everything can be customized. WordPress themes are ready-made for your use, and you can change them according to your brand’s requirements.
To implement a PSD file into your WordPress theme, there are certain aspects that you need to keep in mind while following the file structure of WordPress. Here are a few steps to follow while creating WordPress themes out of PSD files.
Firstly, you should slice your PSD files into individual images so that the design components are eventually saved into multiple segregated files. Any software can be used to slice your PSD files, or you can conduct that process on Photoshop itself. You can distinguish the background, header, and footer for the separation process, hence saving them into different files. It is an essential step as coding the files from a single image would be difficult to process. Separating them and then bringing them back together in the WordPress theme would be a more straightforward process to comprehend. These files are essential for image data storage and recreation as Photoshop usually consists of multiple design layers in higher resolution. Therefore, you can attain multiple pixel-perfect elements for inducing them into your website.
After you’re done with slicing the elements of your image into multiple files, it’s time for you to convert them into elements of the coding language. The files saved then should be converted into HTML (HyperText Markup Language) format, and you can style them using the CSS (Cascading Style Sheets). The sliced elements should be saved with index.html and style.css extensions to achieve this file type. This process is for converting the PSD files into HTML filetype. Boot-strapping the files makes the webpage more responsive and dynamic. In addition, it makes sure that your website looks appealing to your audience. WordPress themes optimize your website for all kinds of devices.
After the basic process of slicing and converting the files into extensions of HTML and CSS, it’s time to convert your files into WordPress thematic files. All that’s left to do is import those files into the system of WordPress. Before we jump into that topic, you need to gain fundamental insights into this process. WordPress has specific file structures to have a seamless flow of visibility on the web page. When doing that, including some plugins or functionalities can be carried out without any trouble.
The four file types divide the index.html file type for WordPress themes. They are as follows:
– header.php
– index.php
– sidebar.php
– footer.php
The header.php portion of the index.html file will be visible at the top of the webpage. The index.php consists of the middle part of the HTML file. Finally, the footer.php file will make the bottom of the page. The index.html file will be broken into these 4 pieces for more accessible coding. Other necessary files require being induced into the WordPress themes. Here is the list of all the filetypes that you will require to complete the WordPress theme template. They are as mentioned below:
– header.php
– index.php
– style.css
– sidebar.php
– footer.php
– comments.php
– single.php
– 404.php
– page.php
– archive.php
– functions.php
– search.php
– searchform.php
While carrying out the conversion process, anyone needs to include these files while converting any PSD to WordPress theme. A similar structure is required to build any website in the WordPress environment.
The last step of converting PSD files into WordPress themes includes adding the right amount of tags and functions into the template prepared by you. There are various in-built functions present in WordPress for a more effortless coding experience. These features make the website smooth to operate and make changes as required. All you need is to use the correct tags in your template, and you’re good to go, WordPress itself will take care of everything else on its own. Php tags need to be induced in the header, footer, and index files. Most of the necessary files mentioned in the previous step are required to have the PHP tag for better functioning of the theme on the web page. A combination of all of these files results in a beautiful website.
Applying all these steps for a PSD to wordpress conversion process will help you reduce workload and produce an aesthetically pleasing website for your users to ponder upon. All the files then all together will be placed into a single file with the theme name that you would like to call it. Following all of these steps, as a result, you shall have a fully responsive website with visuals according to the requirements of your brand or personal self. You can bear the fruits of pixel-perfect design, responsive design, SEO friendly, cost-effective, easy, and enhanced usability of your website.
