How to make WP Blog that doesn't look like blog?

I have a site that is WP based but want to make it to not look like a blog.

What is the easiest way to make my WP blog not look like a blog?. I can manually edit all .php codes on my site but it won't be practical.

Here's an example of a WP blog that doesn't look like a blog (see attached image)

Thanks!!!

 

You can use free templates, like the ones here http://www.themesbase.com/?author=JakeRhodes

 

As it was said, you can use those templates or even make a new template for the wordpress

 

I already have my own custom template for paydayloansonline.cc . Does it mean I have to manually edit my template?

 

Remove the dates from under the posts.. remove the Posted in ____ in your posts... don't show monthly archives...

These all help, but starting with a theme that doesn't look like a blog in the first place makes it easier.

You can remove the Posted in: __ by adding the code below to your style.css

.postmetadata { display: none; }

Code (markup):

This could be different in other themes such as: post_meta_data just look in the source and and see what the div id or class is.

 

Many ppl put their content in pages not article, this will make it look more "static" and not as a blog.

 

As mentioned already, just search for a 'non-blog' wordpress theme and tweak as required. Much easier than creating a custom theme from scratch.

 

The PHP in wordpress is really easy to edit once you get your head around what is what. What else would you like to do on it?

 

smashingmagazine.com has some really interesting articles about how to turn wordpress into a normal site, and to use it fully as a cms. it's really cool, i'd recmmend you go there and see for yourself

 

It depends on the theme, try a different theme, I am sure there are many available for free.

 

You can remove category slugs using a plugin and give posts a permalink of type : %postname% to give them a CMS look. Remove all dates and tags. Categories can be retained to give a sections look to site as in Browse by Sections. Remove Wordpress Version information from head. Remove Windows Live Writer and rsd information from headers. Search google for tutorials on this. Disable commenting and trackbacks. These things can give your site a more static and CMS type look.

 

sorry , but i didn't catch ya, a blog don't like a blog?? then like what??

 

Just look out for templates via google.. u'll get many amazing templates

 

Yeap, it's all about the themes. Make your themes looks like a website not a blog.
