  For Nougat, you can tick 7.1, if it is 6.0 Marshmallow. Then download 6.0 version.

Why do I have to have gapps, when I dont want most of the features it installs? can I delete those I dont want, if not whats the point of having a custom rom, because I thought going custom was to be free from G. ! and have a better setup on my phone without loads of Gs rubbish.
Customisation is what its about, not having to use those apps that are set as standard by Mftrs, or Google, and yes, I understand the security needed, but there are lots of apps that can provide that, also ad blockers, most “free”apps are loaded with ads, so need to be controlled or removed, and I do understand that developers need to earn a living, they have bills to pay to.

Ok, so that said, it would be useful to have a step by step description/list of commands that are needed to install TWRP and any Custom Rom, from adb, and fastboot, also, step by step instalation list of what needs to be loaded first by twrp, how, and what to clear with wipe, or do I need to wipe, I have read many blogs, not one gives concise instruction/step by step, on how to, or what happens after using twrp to load custom, (if it manages to load, that is)
What happens to twrp after loading custom, can I get back to twrp, is the system reboot into twrp, when the phone is switched off? or the custom rom I just loaded, lots of questions, all that many will fail to ask, so risk a bricked phone through lack of information.
What of Su, do I need to load that first, or after the rom is loaded, what to use if the rom loads ok, but loses the IMEI, and how to get that back, every blog I read trys to make out how easy it is to root, and flash a rom, this is the” User Friendly” but only if you know how to use it in the first place .
Congratulations on a blog thats not bad, but the pitfalls are many, and the unwary are large in numbers ! noobies beware, lack of info kills phones !
