Is ‘is_home’ what I’m looking for?

    I want to add something to ONLY the VERY front page of my blog, above the first post. Kind of like a permanent Sticky Post.

    Right now I’m using this code:

    <?php if(is_home() ) { ?>
Home
<?php } else { ?>
Not Home
<?php } ?>

    However, this makes “Home” appear on every page that’s not part of an archive or category, etc. I need a way for only the very first page of posts.

    So, where did you put this code above?
    Next, what is “every page”? Are we talking about Pages or something else?

    Sorry…

    I put the code into the index.php file.

    Using the code I get “Home” on the front page of the blog, but then when I click on “previous posts” it still shows up. So obviously is_home looks at all paginations of the main posts as Home.

    But how can I make it show up only the absolute root of the blog posts?

    Then you should have searched exactly for that: is_home first page only…

    Well, I did several searches, but obviously missed the right one…

    Thank you, very much, for your help.
