[wp-hackers] if it is main page !

[Gavin Pearce]

Hi,

No it doesn't, and no you didn't.   ;)

From the Codex:

is_home() - 
When the main blog page is being displayed. This is the page which is showing the time based blog content of your site, so if you've set a static Page for the Front Page (see below), then this will only be true on the Page which you set as the "Posts page" in Administration > Settings > Reading.

is_front_page()
When it is the front of the site displayed, whether it is posts or a Page. Returns true when the main blog page is being displayed and the 'Settings > Reading ->Front page displays' is set to "Your latest posts", or when 'Settings > Reading ->Front page displays' is set to "A static page" and the "Front Page" value is the current Page being displayed. Note: this tag was added at Version 2.5.

The key bit being "this will only be true on the Page which you set as the "Posts page" in Administration > Settings > Reading."

In simple language - is_home is the main POSTS page (if it isn't the homepage) | is_front_page is the front page / home page.

Like scribu said, for next time: http://codex.wordpress.org/Conditional_Tags
