If page_id =”” do not display form

    I am attempting to display or not display a form based on the current page.

    I am attempting to not display the form if the current page is my affiliate page. The form links to the affiliate page so if the reader is on the page I don’t need the form displayed.

    The form now displays on every page.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Current Code:

    `<?php
    if($post_id != “affiliate-center”){
    print “<div id=\”cbsidebar\” style=\”width:175px;margin:10px auto 10px;display:block;text-align:center\”><form action=\”https://www.mysite.com/affiliate-center/\” method=\”post\” accept-charset=\”UTF-8\”><p style=\”font-size:x-small\”>75% Commisions Great Affiliate Tools</p>
    <label for=\”CB_ID\”>Affiliate ID :</label>
    <input id=\”hop\” name=\”hop\” type=\”text\” value=\”\” />

    <input type=\”submit\” value=\”Go To The Affiliate Center\”/></form></div>”;
    }
    else {
    print “”;
    }
    ?>`

    Thank you

    “affiliate-center” isn’t an id (a number). Try using something like if(!is_single('affiliate-center')).

    esmi,

    Thanks for the reply, however; that was not the solution. Perhaps if I were a bit more descriptive of what I am trying to accomplish.

    I am attempting to get the form I listed in the original post to display based on the page the user is on. The form is in the sidebar. The page_id for that page is 106. However, attempting to use that id as the variable that triggers whether or not the form appears is not working.

    Because I am using permalinks for SEO purposes the url of the page shows up as the page’s title. So the post_id=106 is not actually in the url for the page, and because of that $_GET[‘post_id’] or $_POST is not pulling in the variable.

    I see in the permalink settings that %postname% is the name of the specific page that permalinks is using. Would that be the trigger variable I need?

    if postname==pagename then the trigger?

    Or must I somehow incorporate a WordPress hook in order to parse the variable prior to triggering the form?

    I’ve attempted to use the_title, post_id, and some other variables I can’t remember now as the trigger variable. None seem to work.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    So the post_id=106 is not actually in the url for the page

    No but it’s still the page’s id – no matter what custom permalink structure you’re using.

    If you want the form to only appear on the page with an id of 106, try using:

    <?php if( is_page('106') ):?>
[ form markup goes here ]
<?php endif;?>
