Using Page Templates
Extra includes a collection of page templates that can be used for various purposes. You can apply these page templates to any page you create.
When you edit a page in your WordPress Dashboard, you will notice a Templates dropdown menu in the Page Attributes box, which appears to the right of the text editor. There, you can choose from a list of available page templates.
Once a template is selected and if the selected template has configurable options, an additional settings box labeled Page Template Settings, where template
is the template name you selected will appear after/below the editor (in the left column).
These settings should be configured to achieve the desired result, as outlined in the video tutorial above.
Examples of what each template will look like on the front end of your website are included below.

Blog Feed Page Template
Contact Page Template

A Google Maps API key is required to use the Contact Page Template since it contains a Google Map.
To obtain an API key, log into the Google Developers Console, which will guide you through the process and automatically activate the Google Maps JavaScript API and any related services.
