 The function {{{is_front_page()}}} returns false on the websites homepage
 if the following scenarios:

 1. A user assigns a static homepage, however later (for whatever reason)
 deletes the page from the pages section. Any code dependent on
 {{{is_front_page()}}} will no longer display on the homepage.

 2. A user selects the option "A static page" under Settings -> Reading,
 however doesn't assign a front page.

 With regards to point 2 above, it may be helpful to notify the user that
 if they are choosing to use the static page setting then a front page
 should be assigned.
