   I want to have my search widget only show up on my home page. What code do I need to place and where? Thanks

   Take a look at the Widget Logic plugin.

   Thanks. I downloaded the plugin, but unsure of what code to insert into the widget logic field?

   Try this:

   if (is_front_page()) { return true; } else { return false; }

   This code makes the search bar disappear from all pages. Any thoughts?

   Please check your coding carefully. If it is correct, try changing is_front_page to is_home.

   This did not work. I tried both options, and it either disappeared from every page, showed up on every page, or provided a parse error. Any other ideas?

   Here is the EXACT code I am using, and it works!

   if (is_front_page()) { return true; } else { return false; }

    Why don't you try switching to the Twenty Ten theme to see if it is a theme-related issue?
