In this tutorial, I will show you how to display a div tag on the homepage of your WordPress website or blog.
- First you will need to edit the 'Header.php' file of your WordPress website. For instruction on how to edit your Header.php file using WordPress click here.
- Inside your header.php filemarkup section, enter the code:
PHP | copy code | ? 1 2 <? if (is_home()){ ?>
3 <div>
4 Hello World
5 </div>
6 <? } ?>
7 - Save your changes.
The 'is_home()' function is a built in WordPress function that checks if the visitor is on the homepage or not. This script will echo 'Hello world' only if the visitor is on the home page.
