Well based on the example in your code – try changing the compare operator from (!==) to (!=) for valid PHP.
thank you for your reply but this doesnt work either
Paste your code as outlined above and someone will be able to make a better guess on what is going wrong.
here is the code
<?php if(is_category(7) || is_page(11) && get_post_meta($post->ID, ‘m_slider’, true) == ‘true’ || 11 == $post->post_parent && get_post_meta($post->ID, ‘m_slider’, true) == ‘true’) {?>
<div id=’slider_bg’>
</div><!– slider_bg –>
<div id=’slider_img’>
<div class=”slider” >
<img src='<?php bloginfo(‘template_url’); ?>/slider/<?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, ‘main_folder’, true); ?>/1.jpg’>
<img src='<?php bloginfo(‘template_url’); ?>/slider/<?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, ‘main_folder’, true); ?>/2.jpg’>
<img src='<?php bloginfo(‘template_url’); ?>/slider/<?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, ‘main_folder’, true); ?>/3.jpg’>
<img src='<?php bloginfo(‘template_url’); ?>/slider/<?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, ‘main_folder’, true); ?>/4.jpg’>
</div>
</div>
<?php } ?>
Your slide will show up on any category(7) archive, or
if this is page 11 or a child of page 11
testing for true in quotes is NOT the same as testing for true (not in quotes) – the better test would be get_post_meta($post->ID, ‘m_slider’, true) != ”
On the third term – you are testing the custom field the current page – not the custom field of page 11 (which is what I suspect you want)
