12,081 PointsFrom a technical standpoint, it's pulling the values from the mySQL database that stores all of your WordPress content. The user adds the values to the database through the WP admin, when they create a page or post.

Courses Plus Student 21,242 PointsWhen you use
<?php the_title(); ?> and
<?php the_content(); ?>, it pulls it from whatever the user has set as the title and body of the post of that particular page. If it's inside the loop, then it'll pull the title and content from any posts matching whatever parameters are being used to display the posts.
