Anatomy of static pages. Whats up?

  • I have my posts on a page called “blog” and made a static home page called “home”. The plan is to put the code for the gallery in page.php – then just use an if statement to qualify it for only the home page.

    well, in testing it – I put the code in page.php and it works great – except on the home page. All other pages display the gallery, but the home page only clears the css space – but no gallery. So messed up. Any info on the anatomy of static pages would help.

  • You might want to consider making a custom page template for your Home page:

    Yes. thanks. I did that, but no luck. The code I put there still does the same thing – css blocked out for the gallery, but no gallery. In fact, I copied and pasted page.php for the template, then added the little code snippet – but no luck still. Its blocked out, but nothing is there. Any other tips?

    Yes – don’t put the gallery code in your custom home page template. Then you won’t need an if statement. Make sure that your custom template doesn’t use the same CSS for the main content area as your page.php.
