Drupal 7 how to add content in custom theme

I am developing my custom theme in drupal 7.

I have .info , page.tpl.php and style.css file.

I want to add content (from admin panel article and other contents) in my theme.

How will I do this ? I have added print render($page['content']); in page.tpl.php but it doesn't work.

You need to declare the regions in .info file,

name = themename
description = Your theme description.
version = 7.x
core = 7.x
stylesheets[all][] = css/style.css 

scripts[] = js/yourscript.js 


regions[left] = Left sidebar
regions[right] = Right sidebar
regions[content] = Content
regions[header] = Header
regions[footer] = Footer

then clear the cache tho affect the changes.

You can use the same <?php print render($page['content']); ?> for displaying the content in page.tpl.php

After that go to admin-> structure->blocks

Assign "main page content" to the "content" block

More detailed documentation here.

Please follow the folder and file naming structure.
