wordpress show the page content for use in a template

if you are using page templates in wordpress and need to show content from wordpress this is the easiest method. This only works for wordpress "pages" not blog "posts". For showing blog posts you will need a different loop.

Modified source from here

PHP

<?php
// Show the page content for wordpress template usage, if you want to show the content of the current page. 
while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?> <!-- the_content() function only works inside the WP Loop -->
    <div class="entry-content-page">
        <?php the_content(); ?>
    </div>
<?php
endwhile;
wp_reset_query();
?>
