   My template has a slider on the homepage in the content area. I want it in the header area (above the navigation and below the logo).

   I took
   <?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/includes/homepage-slider.php' ); ?> from the homepage template and pasted it into the header template. Works fine but of course I don't want it on every page just the home page. This might work with the conditional tag
   <?php if (is_home()) {

   but I am not sure how to put it all together. Any idea?

   I tried this:
   

   <?php if(is_home() ) {
   //do slider
   ?>
   <?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/includes/homepage-slider.php' ); ?>
   <?php
   } else {
   //do nothing
   ?>
   <?php
   } ?>

   But the slider is not appearing. Is there an error with the code?

   Thanks! That works. Didn't occur to me to use that.
