Which WP function do I need to display certain things includes on the main page only?

I've got a few things I have added into my site. That are using <?php include> tags.

One is in sidebar.php / one is in footer.php etc.

Problem is I only want to display these includes on the main page.

What's the best way to do it?

} 

?>

Alternatively, is something like this.

PHP Code:


		
			
        <?php if (is_home()) { ?>

        <h1><a href="<?php echo get_settings('home'); ?>/"><img src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/images/logo.png" alt="<?php bloginfo('name'); ?>" /></a></h1>

        <?php } else { ?>

        <h4><a href="<?php echo get_settings('home'); ?>/"><img src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/images/logo.png" alt="<?php bloginfo('name'); ?>" /></a></h4>

        <?php } ?>

Here's a good way to pick out certain categories (for picking out and advertising only gay sites on gay/tranny as per this example)

PHP Code:


		
			
<?php

if (is_home() ) {

    include(TEMPLATEPATH."/banner.php");

} else if ( is_category( 'gay-dicks' ) || post_is_in_descendant_category( 25 ) ) {

    include(TEMPLATEPATH."/bangay.php");

} else if ( is_category( 'tranny' ) || post_is_in_descendant_category( 66 ) ) {

    include(TEMPLATEPATH."/bantranny.php");

} else {

    include(TEMPLATEPATH."/banner.php");

}

?>

Thanks J :thumbsup

2 php includes.

Going to try it out in a second. Will report back with my result :thumbsup

Have any of you guys seen a plugin that will let you put links only in certain categories? I looked real quick the other day but didn't see anything.

There probably is a few plugin solutions that do it now but I've always used my category and tag descriptions to show unique content/links on my cat/tag pages.

PHP Code:


		
			
<?php $category = get_the_category();

echo $category[0]->category_description; ?>

You can put full html in the description fields, you can basically build full pages in there and pull them if you wanted to.

Ok it definately works. but wouldn't work with a php include unless I done it wrong.

Here is what i tried below:

<?php
wp_reset_query();
if (is_home() ) {
echo '<?php include "/include.html"; ?>';
}
?>

Unless I have to put the full file location in there. will try that now.

Code:

<?php

wp_reset_query();

if (is_home() ) {

include "/include.html";

}

?>
