 * I have tried this with is_home and is_front_page and no matter what I always 
   get the same result, the code from the “else” clause displays no matter where
   I am on my site.
 * Does anyone have an idea what my be happening?
 * I have NOT set up my reading settings to point to another page.
 *     ```
       <?php if ( is_front_page()  ) { ?>
       THIS IS THE HOME PAGE
       <?php } else { ?>
       THIS IS NOT THE HOME PAGE
        <?php } ?>
       ```

   in the same template?
