 * I am trying to put the following in a Text widget…
 * > <?php
   >  if ( is_front_page() == 1 ) { echo “Text for frontpage.”; } else { echo“
   > Block of text for all other pages.”; } ?>
 * … the thing is it works perfectly, when I’m logged in but displays nothing at
   all to any logged out visitors!?
 * Any help please?
 * Thank you very much.
