Assign different pages in wordpress

HI,

So as we know page.php is a name in wordpress that makes every single page look the same. Now, that page is already done. Now i have a different section that looks different and its under events. it lists all the events and when i click read more, how do i make that to go to the page that should be the same for the events but to a different page?

In order to do this you will need to created a new page template. 1) create a new php file called page-events.php 2) at the very top of that page add this special comment 

/*
  Template Name: Events Page
*/
 ?>```

3) Go to Pages and create a new page called "events" 
4) Look for the section on the right called "page attributes" 
5) Assign that page the template you created  i.e Events Page
6) Now add the markup you want in the way you want on that specific page. 
7) If for some weird reason in the future this page fails - double check the page attributes and try re-saving permalinks. 

Best of luck! happy coding :)
