Sooo i have created an everblox page template to allow regular pages …

…to be created as plugins cant use the everblox system so things break, so rather than everyone fighting, its now the wordpress way allowing plugins like woocommerce to play nicely. therefore deleted unnessesary page.php then freed up index.php to be the as intended fallback template if no other templates are found. best look at the wp hierarchy for more on this. hidden block development ACF section from page views now so only see in the ACF admin. removed some legacy blocks scss. created home.php as its the native home the blog. up next is to fix archive.php and single.php
