Conditional content based upon is_page() not echoing as expected

    Greetings!

    I have a block of code that looks like this:

    <?php
    if (is_page()) {
    echo ‘Something for Pages’;
    } else {
    echo ‘Something for Posts’;
    }
    ?>

    Unexpectedly, the ‘Something for Posts’ shows on Pages as well as Posts.

    What am I doing wrong?

    Apologies for the lack of links – These experiments (my first WP sites, really) only exist on my dev box for now…

    TIA!

    Gilad, I tested your code on one of my page templates in WP 2.7 and it worked perfectly. The ‘Something for Posts’ did not show up.

    Thanks for the quick assist!

    I’m still on 2.6 on this particular site. I wonder if this is only supposed to work in 2.7… Or if there is something else I have breaking me…

    I’ll upgrade to 2.7 tonight and report back to this thread.

    Thanks again!

    Well, the upgrade had to be postponed, and then I forgot I owed a response to this thread… Silly me…

    Anyway – Once I upgraded to 2.7, the code behaved as expected.

    Thanks for the hint, cafefrenzy!
