    I am customizing a template page and I want to show "Tell us what you think" on one category and the standard "Leave a comment" on all others. How do I do that?

    <?php if( is_category('Name') ) :?>
[ do one thing]
<?php else :?>
[ do something else ]
<?php endif;?>

    For my understanding, how would this statement changed if it is used in a function?

    You would also have to use something like global $post; within the function to call the post object into the function so that its category can be checked.
