 * I’m using some if thens to make my sidebars different for each page.. Problem
   I run into is that the home page doesn’t want anything to do with it.
 * Here’s part of the sidebar statement:
 *     ```
       if(is_home() || is_front_page()) {
       if (!function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') || !dynamic_sidebar( 'home') ) { $generic_sidebar = true; }
       }
       elseif ( is_tree('about') ) {
       if (!function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') || !dynamic_sidebar( 'about') ) { $generic_sidebar = true; }
       }
       ...etc
       ```
   
 * And the functions:
 *     ```
       if ( function_exists('register_sidebars') ) {
       register_sidebar(array('name'=>'home'));
       register_sidebar(array('name'=>'about'));
       ```
   
 * So I’m not sure really how to use the if_home and the is_tree together..
 * The sidebars on the pages work, but the home page refuses to work. Can anyone
   help??

 * Oh; forgot to mention; I have no index.php…
 * I have:
    home.php index.php – blank page.php single.php
 * …maybe that’s what’s causing it. No index.php
