Basic file layout for blog

1.  insid wordpress>> wp-content >> themes >>our project >> index.php -> when post page is set from settings >> Reading >> Front page displays , it executes index.php where we should set up layout of the page like

    -  <?php get_template_part('loop'); ?> :- it will look for loop.php file and executes content in it.It should contain the code for displaying all the posts

    -  <?php get_footer(); ?> :- it will look for footer.php file executes content in it.

   -  single.php :- it should contain the code for displaying one blog post with comments_template(); this       comment template will look for comments.php which should contain the code for displaying all the    comments for one post.
