WP 2.5 is_home() not working?

I did this:

<?php if (is_home()) { ?>
<p>homepage</p>
<?php } ?>

and it isnt working.

I didnt have my frontpage set as static, so it just shows www. myhomepage. com , so what could be the problem with ?

Oh yah, it is with a template that I am modifying that I came to have this problem. Can someone provide me with insights on what could have gone wrong ?

the other conditional tags - is_single etc etc are all working fine.

Thanks!

 

** Sorry, i managed to find the answer somewhere else **

For those who interested (anyway) ,

Add this before your conditional tag -

<?php wp_reset_query(); ?>

Because of earlier query is stored, so you want to reset it away, and thus will show the home() condition as true.

 

Hey,

I'm not a programmer but your post has helped me.

Thanks for this great tip.
