Hello all, I'm approaching the end of a very rigorous week of coding my newest site... www.hitechgadgetspro.com. I had the intention of having a Slideshow on the front page, and in the last couple of days, I've finally achieved just that. However, it shows up on every page, and I want it to ONLY show up on the home page... Does that mean I need to make my OWN plugin? I have no idea what to do... the effect I want it to have is shown for a tenth of a second when you click on a link from the navbar. Secondly, the title is for my second problem... I almost forgot. I do not want the WP loop on my home page, but rather a "latest Posts and "favorite posts" thing instead. Any advice on how to make the loop disappear, and any tips on certain plugins? Please help me, Thanks in advance PS: images are temporary...not actually ones I plan on using.
to make your slideshow appear only at the frontpage try this edit your current template's index.php and find <div id="slide_wrap"> HTML: and add before this code <?php if(is_home()) {?> PHP: next find <!--End of #slide_wrap--> HTML: add after this code <?php }?> PHP:
thank you SO freakin much! Finally one less problem to solve! For the next question... would a static front page do the trick?
