787 PointsCreating a single stylesheet for multiple pages??
Can anyone offer suggestions on how to alter my CSS to create a new "single post" page? I'm trying to convert to Wordpress and want to maintain a single stylesheet.
Code below, but w/ broken images. http://codepen.io/tpicks/pen/lryaF
Thanks! Any questions please ask.

I've made my homepage, but the CSS/HTML layout isn't ideal for a "post" page. So i'm thinking of just adding CSS to the same stylesheet but with different article classes for the single post page.

Treehouse Guest TeacherTom, you can load CSS conditionally via the functions.php. This way you can say if the page is using a certain template then display a certain CSS file.
Try checking out our Linking to CSS video along with some of the WordPress conditional tags that you can use.
