Helly,

is it possible to query if i’m on the startpage of my blog or elsewhere. I want to enable a feature just if i’m on the frontpage of my blog.

regards

Look at the various Conditional Tags.

Try this:
```
<?php if(is_front_page() ) { ?>

//do stuff

<?php } ?>
```

This works too:
```
<?php if(is_home() ) {

//do stuff

} else {

//do stuff

} ?>
```

I’d just like to point out that the is_home() function is true if you’re on the main blog page, and the is_front_page() function can be the same page unless you have a static front page set, then it will only be true on that page.

Thank you banago and Mvied, this has helped me resolve an issue with showing a particular widget in the sidebar on the home page only. I can see many uses for it in the future.

My apologies, thank you to Mark as well.
