    Hi….i am using the mystique theme and wanted to use the newsticker from 18elements.com .. they say that i have to paste the php code in my template file …. <?php if ( function_exists(‘insert_newsticker’) ) { insert_newsticker(); } ?> ….. if i paste it into header.php … it shows up on every page and i cant insert php in the wordpress editor ….. my question is what is the template file which i should use so that the news ticker appears only on the homepage

    go to your theme settings – the advanced page, and in the user functions field paste:

    <?php

function newsticker(){
  if(is_home()) insert_newsticker();
}
add_action('mystique_header_end', 'newsticker');

    hi thanks for the quick reply…..i am sorry if i appear to be a complete dumba** … i pasted the code

    <?php

function newsticker(){
  if(is_home()) insert_newsticker();
}
add_action('mystique_header_end', 'newsticker'); ?>

    ..it doesn’t do anything…. maybe because i have identified my homepage as a static page….name of the page is home….. and could you also plsss tell me how to switch off the font increase/decrease option………….thanks a lot……theme is awesome by the way…many thanks

    EDIT: This is the page which i am using as home.. post.php?post=36 ..
    i have set up a static home page…thanks again

    then change is_home() with is_front()

    also besides mystique_header_end there are other locations where you can insert this:

    mystique_before_main
    mystique_before_primary

    good luck
