    Hi Guys

    I am trying to make my blogroll appear on the homepage only, there are a few threads that I have read but none are working, I think Im running a different version to the threads I have read 3.1.3

    My sidebar code looks like this

    <?php
    // A second sidebar for widgets, just because.
    if ( is_active_sidebar( ‘secondary-widget-area’ ) ) : ?>

    <div id=”secondary” class=”widget-area” role=”complementary”>
    <ul class=”xoxo”>
    <?php dynamic_sidebar( ‘secondary-widget-area’ ); ?>

    </div><!– #secondary .widget-area –>

    <?php endif; ?>

    Any ideas?

  • Conditionals are perfect for this. Wrap your second widgetized area in a conditional tag that tests whether you’re on the homepage. This will activate the secondary widget area on the front page only.

    <?php
// check whether it's the front (home) page
if ( is_front_page() ): 

// A second sidebar for widgets, just because.
if ( is_active_sidebar( 'secondary-widget-area' ) ) : ?>

<div id="secondary" class="widget-area" role="complementary">
<ul class="xoxo">
<?php dynamic_sidebar( 'secondary-widget-area' ); ?>

</div><!-- #secondary .widget-area -->

<?php endif; 

endif; // close the conditional

?>

    A second way to accomplish something similar is to install Widget Logic:

    Then, in the conditional field that now appears below your blogroll widget, add: is_front_page()

    Perfect, I knew it was something to do with conditionals I just didn’t know how to write it, many thanks!!!!!!!!!

    Yes, is_front_page() did the job!
