   I need some help adjusting my wordpress theme using conditional tags.

   I want to be able to say "if home then show title 'X', if a category show the category title, if post show the post title, if page show the page title" for my h1 tag and html title tag.

   I went through the conditional tag information here but can't wrap my mind around it.

   Any help is appreciated.

   Thanks,
   Dan

   I really just need help with how to make the title of a page to appear, I've got home, posts, and categories.

   This is what I have so far:
   <?php

   if (is_home()) {
   echo "TITLE" ;
   } elseif (is_category()) {
   single_cat_title('');
   } elseif (is_page()) {
   ;
   } elseif (single_post_title()){
   the_title('');

   }

   ?>

   Help is very much appreciated.

   Thanks,
   Dan

   It helps to know *where* this information is being displayed on your templates. But just going with what you have above:

   <?php
if (is_home()) {
echo "TITLE";
} elseif (is_category()) {
single_cat_title();
} elseif (is_page() || is_single()) {
the_title();
}
?>

   Note that Pages and posts use the same template tags for displaying "post" content, so I merely combined them under the same elseif(). More on conditional tags is found here:
