 * I am writing a pretty complex theme for a business and there will a lot of IF
   statements in the them, eg if this categoriy or if this page etc…. I know that
   pages can be done like so.
    <?php if ( is_home() ) { ?> do this here… <?php }?
   > but what about certain categories? Also do these statements work in the page.
   php and such? Thanks in advance
