Page dependant text

    Hi all ??

    I have another request for advice…

    I need to be able to show a small amount of text on all pages, but depending on which page I’m on, the text needs to be different.

    It’s a charity website, with areas for different countries, each with their own set of sub pages.

    I need to display an amount raised for each country on the countries home page and sub pages. Ideally, I can position the amount as I see fit, but not 100% needed.

    Is there any way anyone can think of doing this? Widgets, plugins, coding?

    Thanks in advance for any help!

    /Doug

    The conditional tag is_page with a php if, elseif, else could do this:

    Thanks for the tip! I’ll have a look and see if I can figure it out. Not very clued up on php though ??

    OK, I found a plugin called More Fields which looks like a possibility.

    I’m hoping to find a solution to have 1 location to update these amounts and then they would show on the appropriate page. So I could put the UK total raised in one box somewhere and this would appear say at the top right of the UK page and all its sub-pages (except the red nose day one). I’ll explain further. Here is the page hierarchy with the totals that need to be on each (and and the ones below until a new one is mentioned):

    # Home – Worldwide Total

    # Contact Us
    # Fundraising
    # Governance
    # Press
    # Privacy Policy
    # Site Map
    # Terms and Conditions
    # Trustees

    # United Kingdom – UK Total

    # Australia – AUS Total

    # France – FR Total

    Could I create a page and hide it from the navigation and somehow pull the content to display on the appropriate pages somehow do you think? Having trouble getting my head around it lol

    I’ll have a good look into ‘More Fields’ and see if that helps…

    Thanks for advice so far! All further ideas welcome!

    OK, so, More Fields looks good in the way that I can put a box which lets me choose options on the pages edit area, but I’m not sure how to make those options mean anything. I now have a box which lets me choose which total to put on a page, but I don’t know how to make it do anything with anything lol – I think I’m missing something important…

    I use the Widget Logic plugin, then the Text widgit, and set it to which pages i want the text to appear to. Works great without messing with the .php pages.
