I have been using optimize press for a while and would like to switch to a theme, where I can just use html for the squeeze or sales page.

Is there a way to use html on a theme for a squeeze page so that it replaces just the theme for just that page?

    Not sure if I understand exactly what your asking, but...

    As you probably know, you can put html in wordpress, in pages, just be in HTML mode. You can copy and paste code. Course takes a little messing with image paths, if you have any images.

    If you wanted to go further, you can remove say header/footer for a given page using php code in those files, same for sidebar.

    Of just just a wordpress squeeze page template? Few of those around.

    Was that what you meant?

      Yea thanks for the insight.

      I know about using html, but the challenge I have is editing the php stuff so that a single page has a completely different layout from the main theme

        I came across a WP theme awhile back ago which might be the answer to your question.

        They have a specific theme options page where you can edit the design, header, footer, etc.

        Havent tried it out yet but thought you could give it a try.

        Add the squeeze page HTML page in the root folder, then manually add hyperlinks on any page in the blog, or external site/page pointing at the new HTML page.

        Simple copy/paste job If you already have the HTML squeeze page.

        Done,

    An elegant way to do this is to create a brand new page template. It's really easy:

    1. In the theme folder, create a PHP file, say squeeze.php

    2. Add the following PHP at the top:

    <?php
    /*
    Template Name: Squeeze page
    */
    ?><?php the_content(); ?>


    Optionally, you can include your site's header and footer using the following functions around the content in your squeeze.php file:

    <?php get_header(); ?>

    <?php get_footer();?>


    Wordpress instantly recognizes it as page template that you can select from when creating a new page.

    3. Create a new page. On the right sidebar, select the template "Squeeze Page"

    4. Edit the page in HTML or Visual Mode

    5. You're done!

    If you want more digital marketing features, such as lightbox popups and notification bars, and responsive design, you can check out a theme I designed called Minimaliste. It's a Wordpress theme for marketers with a built-in full-width page template for squeeze pages, home pages and landing pages.

    For completely different layout (reminder to the other posters: READ the OP before even thinking to reply!)
    - get this no-optin tutorial: No optin Download! | Istvan Horvath - Blog
    - that page was done with the technique described in the tutorial (compare it with the blog's layout!)
    - there are at least 2 templates in the package
