Hey there, I made a bright red "breaking news" bar at http://www.dailytitan.com, which can be turned "on" and "off" in PHP at specific times. Is there a way to isolate something to the front page only? We would like the bar to only appear on the front page, and not every page. Maybe there is an if statement that asks "if this is the front page?" Any help much appreciated! Thanks, Chris

Hey Chris,

Did you add it to the header? In either regard, you should be able to wrap it in a function called is_home() to just have it display on the home page. As an example:


if (is_home()) { show_breaking_news(); }

Hope that helps!
