    Hi there,

    the RSS feed output on the right is because you placed the Advanced Text Widget in that sidebar. It actually worked.

    By the way, the function wp_rss() has been deprecated.

    I’m not sure what exactly you’re trying to achieve by pasting is_front_page() into the template. First – it has to be entered in PHP context between the <?php ?> tags, otherwise you just printed out an HTML string on a page. Second – this function returns a boolean result – true or false, and usually is being used in conditions like:

    <?php
if( is_front_page() ){
  echo "Yey! This is the front page!";
}else{
  echo "Shucks! No front page here...";
}
?>

    In order to output a widget in a desired place, you need to make sure that the desired place is actually a widgetized area (in other words a sidebar). Then drag the widget into that sidebar and it should work.
