 * Hi guys I currently have this array, which I had help writing, which switches
   out the header images for several different categories.
 * Now, I need a custom header image for a page instead of a category. It’s just
   one right now, but it will probably be more later, so I’m thinking I should keep
   the array format?
 * Anyway, here’s the code I currently have and I’d be making
 * ‘shop-2’ => ‘headercat14’
 * This code is contained within the header.php file:
 *     ```
       <?php
       $c = get_query_var('cat');
       $cat = get_category ($c);
   
       $headers = array(
           'americans-want-peace' => 'headercat01',
           'all-nations-want-peace' => 'headercat02',
           'all-religions-want-peace' => 'headercat03',
           'all-people-want-peace' => 'headercat04',
           'military-america' => 'headercat05',
           'worldwide-warfare' => 'headercat06',
           'persecuting-peacemakers' => 'headercat07',
           'glorifying-war-with-mass-media' => 'headercat08',
           'non-violence-works' => 'headercat09',
           'war-wrecks-usa-economy' => 'headercat10',
       	'united-peace-and-green-movements' => 'headercat11',
       	'save-the-children-social-justice' => 'headercat12',
       	'peace' => 'headercat13',
       	'shop-2' => 'headercat14'
       );
   
       $divid = isset($headers[$cat->slug]) ? $headers[$cat->slug] : 'header';
   
       ?>
       ```
