Special page on Mondays

  • I need to display a special page only on Mondays. I found an older post about changing the page based on the day of the week, but I don’t exactly understand it. I see that I will have to modify the index page of my theme and that’s as far as I got. I’m not a code-y person.

  • As a starting point, you can do something like this:

    if( date ('N') == 1 ){
    // Show MONDAY's page
    $post = get_post( $monday_post_id );
}

    That’s a pretty simplified version of what you can do, but that will work.

    Thank you. The Muffin Monday page is a PAGE rather than a POST, so would I use $page = get_page etc. ?

    No, you wouldn’t. The code of WordPress doesn’t differentiate between posts and pages like that. As far as it’s concerned, everything is a post so you just stick with the code that I gave above.
