What you have said works fine, but as Dantes mentioned there is a problem if you have more than one page. Any solutions found?
I am having the same trouble. I can’t for the life of me figure it out. I could do it in the earlier versions. Any one out there have any ideas?
I have found the solution to my problem. What you need to do for any future readers is this.
Add in at the very top of you home.php
<?php if (is_home() && !is_paged()) {>
Then you front page design with the loops etc.
<?php } else }?>
Then your second page design.
<?php }?>
You could probably repeat this using other condition tags.
Thanks samboll, I already have multiple loops on one page to display the posts in different places, but that still doesn’t explain how you can change the design completely for page 2.
