    I need some help adjusting my wordpress theme using conditional tags.

    I want to be able to say “if home then show title ‘X’, if a category show the category title, if post show the post title, if page show the page title” for my h1 tag and html title tag.

    I went through the conditional tag information here but can’t wrap my mind around it.

    Any help is appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Dan

    I really just need help with how to make the title of a page to appear, I’ve got home, posts, and categories.

    This is what I have so far:
    <?php

    if (is_home()) {
    echo “TITLE” ;
    } elseif (is_category()) {
    single_cat_title(”);
    } elseif (is_page()) {
    ;
    } elseif (single_post_title()){
    the_title(”);

    }

    ?>

    Help is very much appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Dan

    It helps to know *where* this information is being displayed on your templates. But just going with what you have above:

    <?php
    if (is_home()) {
    echo "TITLE";
    } elseif (is_category()) {
    single_cat_title();
    } elseif (is_page() || is_single()) {
    the_title();
    }
    ?>

    Note that Pages and posts use the same template tags for displaying “post” content, so I merely combined them under the same elseif(). More on conditional tags is found here:
