<title><?php if(is_front_page()) echo 'Welcome to my site';
else wp_title('«', true, 'right'); ?> <?php bloginfo('name'); ?></title>
Wow thanks for that.
Mind explaining what it does?
Many thanks 🙂
if(is_front_page()) = is this the front page of the site?
If it is, show (echo) the welcome message.
If it isn’t (else), show the post title followed 2 left angle quotes («) and the blog name
I see thanks for that.
I assume this would only work with the front page, could add a page id?
For example this is page id 40 print this instead of page name?
For a particular page, use is_page():
`is_page(’40’)
is_page(‘About Me’)
So to include that in what esmi posted before the top line of what was posted before becomes….
<title><?php if(is_front_page() || is_page('YOURPAGENAME')) echo 'Welcome to my site';
…incase you wanted a break down …. 🙂
The || simply means or, so if it’s the front page or a page named “YOURPAGENAME” (in the example).. *minus quotation..
Thanks esmi/t31os
I need it to work in a particular way, not the browser title but in the main body title above the main body text.
So..
<h2>
<?php if(is_front_page()) echo 'Welcome to'; ?> <?php bloginfo('name'); echo 'test name'; ?> </h2>
Works great but there is no space before ‘test name’
Also a range of pages needs its own title, can this be done.
For example..
If home page the above one..
If is_page(23): print welcome to page 23,If is_page(24): print this is page 24,If is_page(25): print important page 25,If is_page(26): print different page 26,If is_page(27): print welcome to page 27 etc etc
Can that be done?
Gave it a go here but didnt work 🙁
<h2>
<?php if(is_front_page()) echo 'Welcome to'; ?><?php bloginfo('name'); echo 'Test Blog'; ?>
<?php if(is_page(23) echo 'welcome to page 23';?>
<?php if(is_page(24) echo 'this is page 24'; ?>
</h2>
Thanks 🙂
Manged to get this one working, the best way to do it though?
<h2><?php
if(is_page(21))
{
echo 'Welcome to my home page';
}
elseif (is_page(23))
{
echo 'this is page 23';
}
elseif (is_page(24))
{
echo 'this is page 23';
}
?></h2>
Nothing wrong with what you have…
I’d personally do it this way, but there’s not going to be any measurable difference between the 2 pieces of code..
<?php
if(is_page(21)) { $title_msg = 'Welcome to my home page'; }
elseif (is_page(23)) { $title_msg = 'this is page 23'; }
elseif (is_page(24)) { $title_msg = 'this is page 24'; }
else { $title_msg = 'Default message'; }
?>
<h2><?php echo $title_msg; ?></h2>
