PHP If At This URL - Don't Show This Code.

Hi All

I've added some code to the wordpress sidebar which simply shows an image link. I'm trying to make it so this code doesn't show on a specific page though, as the image is the same as the one on the page it links too.

Not a coder, but was thinking this could be done with php if / else statements?

Was working on something like:

<?
$comppage = "/page-i-dont-want-code-to-show-on/";
$comppage = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
if($comppage==$currentpage) {
echo "";
else
echo "image code here";
}
?>

But this just removes the whole sidebar - I hotched it together from reading other forum posts. Anyone know how I can do this?

Cheers

Paul

Nevermind, realised my mistake.

<?php if (stripos($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'],'/page-i-dont-want-code-to-show-on/') !== false) {echo '';}
else
{echo 'image code here';}
?>

All good.

For non-coders there is plugin called WordPress › Widget Logic that makes it fairly easy and without changing the php code.

This adds an extra field to each widget where you can add a conditional statement to control when it should display.

e.g.

• is_home()
• is_page(array(71,1548))
• !is_page(9) /* is not */
• in_category(array(252))
• is_category('softtoys')

That looks like a great plugin, cheers!
