customize particular page in wordpress

Paula

I want to customize layout for a particular page and remain the same for the others. Basically I want to add an HTML block for the contact us page. The HTML block appears to every page If I add the HTML block in page.php file.

# page.php file
while ( have_posts() ) :
	the_post();

	get_template_part( 'template-parts/page/content', 'page' );

	// If comments are open or we have at least one comment, load up the comment template.
	if ( comments_open() || get_comments_number() ) :
		comments_template();
	endif;

endwhile;

I am adding <section> under </header> HTML block in content-page.php file.

<header class="entry-header">
    <?php the_title( '<h1 class="entry-title">', '</h1>' ); ?>
    <?php wp233_edit_link( get_the_ID() ); ?>
</header><!-- .entry-header -->
<section>
    .....
</section>
<div class="entry-content">
    ....
</div>

Paula You are very close to achieving the required result. You just need to use is_page() function to identify the particular page. Take a look to the modified version of content-page.php file.

Assume you have the title Contact Us, the slug contact-us and the page id 12.

<header class="entry-header">
    <?php the_title( '<h1 class="entry-title">', '</h1>' ); ?>
    <?php wp233_edit_link( get_the_ID() ); ?>
</header><!-- .entry-header -->
<?php if ( is_page( 12, 'contact-us', 'Contact Us' ) ): ?>
<section>
    .....
</section>
<?php endif; ?>
<div class="entry-content">
    ....
</div>

The <section> HTML block only appears if the contact us page hold the title Contact Us or the slug contact-us or the id 12.

Take a look to the documentation to learn more about is_page() function https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/is_page/

Or you could use the global $post object to check with page id, slug or title.

<?php global $post; ?>
<header class="entry-header">
    <?php the_title( '<h1 class="entry-title">', '</h1>' ); ?>
    <?php wp233_edit_link( get_the_ID() ); ?>
</header><!-- .entry-header -->
<?php if ( $post->ID == 12 ): ?>
<section>
    .....
</section>
<?php endif; ?>
<div class="entry-content">
    ....
</div>
