is_front_page()
edit: nvm, your spelling error is just in the title.
you’re calling it before your sites being loaded basically. where are you putting this?
Hello David,
I am using this in a plugin that loads some jquery code for a slider, it would be helpful to have is_front_page to prevent the code appearing on every page but the home page
within that plugin
if ( is_front_page() ) { ... }
can’t be called at say, wrapped around the entire plugin, it’s best to put it before it outputs, like in a hook or filter where the plugin tries to output.. I don’t know what the code of the plugin looks like, but I imagine it’s something like i.e.:
add_action('the_content','add_slideshow');
function add_slideshow() {
if ( is_front_page() ) {
..
}
}
Sorry for the delay in getting back to you
so yes, plugins_loaded is too early of a hook for a is_front_page() argument.
try init or wp hooks. I can’t guarantee they’ll work, as I’m not sure what mytheme_slider_Widget_Loader needs/does/etc.
add_action( 'init', array( 'mytheme_slider_Widget_Loader', 'load' ) );
//or
add_action( 'wp', array( 'mytheme_slider_Widget_Loader', 'load' ) );
Hello David,
‘wp’ worked like a brilliantly, so I can now place CSS and JS hooks
only on the homepage. Thanks for your help
add_action( 'wp', 'mytheme_carousel_add_frontend' );
function mytheme_carousel_add_frontend()
{
if(is_front_page() || is_home())
{
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'mytheme_add_carousel_core_css',1 );
add_action('wp_footer', 'mytheme_add_carousel_options_content' ,20);
}
}
I forgot where I got this from but it’s a list of hooks, in fire order. My IDE has a shortcut for referencing this list so I can quickly know where to add certain actions.
