Add Pages and Sections to a Converted Theme

Add new pages to live WPConvert themes with the Page Importer plugin, or add sections manually — without full re-conversion.

You converted your AI-built site, launched it, and everything looks great. Then you need a new Pricing page, an extra Services section, or a seasonal landing page.

You do not have to re-convert the entire site.

WPConvert's Add a Page feature installs a single new page into your live theme. For smaller changes, you can add a new section to an existing page with a quick template edit.

This guide covers both workflows.

Why not re-convert for one page?

Re-converting a finished site to add one page causes problems:

• You lose post-launch edits — WPConvert Editor changes and wp-admin updates live in your current install
• It uses a conversion credit — a full re-conversion counts against your quota
• Menu and layout drift — re-importing can reshuffle menus and overwrite Appearance tweaks
• It is slow — rebuilding the entire theme for one page is wasted time

The fix is additive: add the new page or section on top of the theme you already have.

Option 1: Add a whole new page (Add a Page)

The Add a Page feature builds a single-page add-on for your existing theme. Available on Pro, Agency, and PAYG plans. Adding a page does not use a monthly conversion credit.

What Add a Page does

When you upload a new page's files, WPConvert:

• Generates a matching template using your theme's structure and class names
• Scopes the new page's CSS to that page only — other pages are unaffected
• Builds a WPConvert Page Importer plugin that installs the template, assets, and WordPress Page
• Stays additive — never overwrites your existing theme files

If anything looks wrong, deactivate the importer plugin.

Prepare your page ZIP

Pack the rendered page — not a lone source file.

Recommended (most reliable)

1. Open the finished page in your browser (preview, live URL, or local dev server).
2. Save or export so you have the HTML file and its assets (CSS, JS, images) in one folder.
3. Name the main file index.html if it is the only page in the zip.
4. If you used browser Save Page As, zip both the .html file and its companion _files folder.

Also works — full project export

Upload a complete React/Vite/Next.js project zip (with package.json), same as a normal conversion. WPConvert snapshots the app's entry route — usually the homepage. The slug you enter sets the WordPress URL only; it does not choose which in-app route gets rendered. If your new page is not the homepage, use the static HTML export approach.

Won't work on its own

• A single component or page source file (e.g. one .jsx or .tsx file)
• Images or CSS with no HTML page
• Only the assets / _files folder (missing the .html file)

Step-by-step: Add a Page

1. Prepare the new page as a ZIP using the guide above.
2. Open your dashboard → My Conversions.
3. Click Add a page. Upload the ZIP, set a title, and set the slug (e.g. pricing → yoursite.com/pricing).
4. Download the generated importer — WPConvert builds the WPConvert Page Importer plugin ZIP.
5. In WordPress: Plugins → Add New → Upload Plugin → install and activate the importer.
6. The new page, template, and assets are added automatically.
7. Add the page to your menu under Appearance → Menus.

After import

• Edit static content on the new page with the WPConvert Editor on the front end
• Deactivate the importer plugin if you need to remove the page add-on

Option 2: Add a section to an existing page

For a new block on an existing page (e.g. a testimonials section on your homepage), edit the page template directly.

Step-by-step

1. Identify the template file — usually page-home.php, front-page.php, or page-{slug}.php in your theme.
2. Open Appearance → Theme File Editor (or edit via SFTP).
3. Find a sibling <section> with similar styling to what you want.
4. Copy the entire section — including wrapper classes — so your new block inherits theme CSS.
5. Paste your new content inside the copied structure.
6. Save and preview on the front end.
7. Edit the new content with the front-end editor if regions are marked editable.

Tips

• Copy structure, not just inner HTML — wrapper classes control spacing and responsive behavior
• Keep one H1 per page for SEO
• Test mobile breakpoints after adding a section

Add to navigation

After adding a page or section with a new route:

1. Appearance → Menus
2. Add the new page to your header or footer menu
3. Save the menu
