I am trying to configure the header area differently based on whether it's the front page or not. Can I use the is_front_page() function here along with the %logo %bar1 %pages %image items on the ATO page?

i.e-

on the front page I want %bar1 %logo %bar1 %pages %image. On all others I want %bar1 %logo %bar1 %image %pages %bar2. Seems like it should work, but I'm a newbie and my coding isn't working right.

Thank you

exactly what did you code?

Well I tried this in the Configure Header Area -

<?php if ( is_front_page() ){%bar1 %bar1 %logo %bar1 %pages %bar1 %image};
else {%bar1 %bar1 %logo %bar1 %image %pages %bar1 }; ?>

and of course that didn't work. After further thinking I realized that this is probably not the right spot to be having code, but I don't know. Like I said, I'm all new to this. Any help is appreciated. Thank you

yeah, you can't do it that way. Try this

<?php if ( is_front_page() ){ ?> %bar1 %bar1 %logo %bar1 %pages %bar1 %image <?php };
else { ?> %bar1 %bar1 %logo %bar1 %image %pages %bar1 <?php }; ?>

juggledad -

I tried putting that in the HTML Inserts: Header and it didn't work for me. I tried putting it in the Configure Header Area and that didn't work for me.

Where should this code be placed? Thanks,

this should work, put it in 'Configure Header Area'

<?php if ( is_front_page() ){ echo '%bar1 %bar1 %logo %bar1 %pages %bar1 %image'; }
else { echo' %bar1 %bar1 %logo %bar1 %image %pages %bar1'; }; ?>
