WordPress get_template_part()
Introduction
The purpose of this function is to standardize the way import partials or components of a theme into the main theme template. You could use a standard PHP SSI (server side includes), however, there are some benefits to using get_template_part(). Using this function reduces errors prone to less experienced developers trying to identify fully qualified path on the server.Also, it fails gracefully when files don't exist, and handles a custom hierarchy fallback system aka "fuzzy template searching".
