Here’s a really simple question. I have wordpress 3.4.2 installed. I’m trying to build a theme from scratch. So I’ve added a style.css file and an index.php file. Both only containing the bare minimum. Now I’m wondering when I call the get_header() and get_footer() functions from index.php, where are the header.php and footer.php files located that wordpress is using to generate the header and footer of my site?

    Found the answer here: http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_header. It seems the default header.php and some other template files are in wp-includes/theme-compat/
