<?php
if (in_category(‘1′)) echo “<img src=’/images/teams.jpg’ />”;
elseif (in_category(‘4′)) echo “<img src=’/images/child-sponsorship.jpg’ />”;
else echo “<img src=’/images/home-image.jpg’ />”;?>
I hate using if followed by colons. Hard to read and understand.. Bah. I’m also not a big fan of continually opening and closing the PHP blocks every other line.
Try this instead:
<?php
if (in_category('1')) {
echo "<img src='/images/teams.jpg' />";
}
else if (in_category('4')) {
echo "<img src='/images/child-sponsorship.jpg' />";
}
else {
echo "<img src='/images/home-image.jpg' />";
}
?>
See how much nicer that is? Spaced out, easy to read, groups the bits together naturally… just nicer, IMO. Works too. 🙂

Thanks for all your help! But I’m still having a problem…the home page displays does not display the “else” image, but rather, the image from the corresponding category of the first post. Suggestions?

Not first post, but most recent post. (The first one WP displays.)
jefft: Add an “if (is_home()) { blah blah }” to the beginning of the series of if statements. That way, you can explicitly define what you want on the home page.
