   Hi guys,

   There was a section on my homepage in the header.php where I wanted to add content from a page ID, it worked for me and looks like this.

   <?php
   $page_id = 1493;

   $page_data = get_page( $page_id );

   echo apply_filters('the_content', $page_data->post_content);
   ?>

   Because this is in the header.php file it is displaying on every page, blog, posts etc when I only want it on the homepage.

   What code do I add to say IF Homepage to display Else don't display the content????

   depending if you have a static front page or if the posts page is on te front, use either is_front_page() or is_home();

   example:

   <?php if( is_home() ) :
   $page_id = 1493;
   $page_data = get_page( $page_id );
   echo apply_filters('the_content', $page_data->post_content);
   endif; ?>

   Hi alchymyth, thank you very much it is working now using the is_front_page() , I appreaciate the help!

   One more problem is the next line, where I want to display the DIV only if is_front_page() , It's not working because I have a plugin to display also within the DIV. What is wrong with this code?
   

   <?php if(is_front_page()) :
   
   	<div class="featuredimg" style="bottom: 0px;">
   
   <?php if (function_exists('vslider')) { vslider('homeslide'); }?>
   
   	</div>							
   
   	endif; ?>

   you need to close the php tags when switching to html code, and open them again when going back to php code;

   <?php if(is_front_page()) : ?>
   
   	<div class="featuredimg" style="bottom: 0px;">
   
   <?php if (function_exists('vslider')) { vslider('homeslide'); }?>
   
   	</div>							
   
   <?php endif; ?>
