 * Hi there, php experts.
 * How do you combine conditions in a conditional php statement?
    If this is a single
   post AND is in category(‘blah blah’) [then show the ShareThis widget – have the
   php for this]
 * Thanks for your help…

 * I believe this will help you along …
 *     ```
       if ( is_single() && in_category('blah blah') ) {
         // Share_This widget code
       }
       ```

 * Thank-you cais, that’s perfect.
    One other question – how do I say NOT in category(‘
   blah blah’).
 * In other words – if is single and NOT in category=blah blah then share-this widget
   code

 * The exclamation mark ( ! ) is used for ‘not’, such as:
 *     ```
       if ( is_single() && !in_category('blah blah') ) {
         // Share_This widget code
       }
       ```
