   I think somewhere I must have mixed up some code/syntax because my conditional isn't working correctly.

   What it is supposed to do is show a post blurb on the home page in one spot if it's the home page. If not, then show a form. Currently, it is showing the form on the home & other pages, and the post blurb isn't showing.

   Here is the code:

   What'd I do wrong :( ?

   Changing it and simplifying it down to:

   <?php if ( is_home() ) { ?>
                Test
            <?php }
   		 		else {  ?>
      					 <div id="resources">
               	Test 2
               </div><!-- end resources -->
   				<?php	}   ?>

   Test 2 shows on homepage :/ ...

   alternatively try:
   http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/is_front_page

   if your site is running other queries before this conditional statement, the querystring might be distorted - try to add wp_reset_query(); before the if statement.

   Well, digging around I found this, which says, just add <?php wp_reset_query(); ?> before your conditional and it will reset all previous queries and make your conditional work.

   And it worked :D

   Hope that helps someone else!

   I am having problems with this as well and wp_reset_query won't work either.

   I am on WP 3.1
