There’s a few ways but basically the method I prefer the most is the Dynamic Widgets plugin which lets you assign a widget to show on select locations throughout your site. This is what I used on all my theme demo websites. The other option is if you use Jetpack, it has a visibility feature added to all widgets that also lets you do that. Then there’s Widget logic, another plugin that adds a text field to the bottom of each widget where you enter in conditionals. For example, the front page would be this:
is_front_page() **means show this widget only on the front page.
I still prefer dynamic widgets though because it has a lot more flexibility.
thank you very much! dynamic widgets its perfect and working fine. but in a page where i have a gallery when am open the images it also open the slider in the same page. what you prefer?
You mean the slider is still opening on another page instead of just the front page?
no the slider shows up only in homepage. but in page where i have a gallery when i click to see the image its opening the slider and the image .
That is very odd…do you have a link?
When you have the dynamic widgets open where you choose where to show the widget, at the top you see this:
Set all options to ‘No’ (Except overriding options like Role, Date, etc.)
Click the text link there to set all options to “No” and then do the exception further below with the page that is your home page (front page). This will ensure it only shows on the front.
thank you so much its perfect now . thanks again for your support !!
