Profile pic on pages not posts

    Hi,
    I need some help adjusting the code so that a profile pic shows up in posts but not on pages. Right now I have <?php echo get_avatar( get_the_author_email(), ’50’ ); ?> in the loop but that has resulted in authors images being on both post and pages.

    Is there somewhere else I should put this so that only posts get pics? Or is there something else I should do in a different place to override this instruction on pages?

    Many thanks for your help,
    Eleanor

    Hi Esmi,
    Thanks for your help but that shows pic on page and not posts whereas I’d like it the other way round (pic showing on posts, not pages)

    I tried changing what you gave me to:

    <?php if(is_post()) echo get_avatar( get_the_author_email(), ’50’ ); ?>

    and then ..
    <?php if(is_not_page()) echo get_avatar( get_the_author_email(), ’50’ ); ?>

    followed by ..
    <?php if(is_post()) echo get_avatar( get_the_author_email(), ’50’ ); ?>

    and …
    <?php if(have_post()) echo get_avatar( get_the_author_email(), ’50’ ); ?>

    but all gave errors saying:
    Fatal error: Call to undefined function is_post() in /home/custard/public_html/giveabrick/wp-content/themes/atahualpa/index.php on line 14

    So next question I guess is what function do I need instead of ‘is_page to get the pic showing on posts not pages?

    Many thanks for your help and patience,
    Eleanor

    Try if(is_archive() || is_single())

    Hi,
    I wasn’t sure where to put that (sorry, I’m brand new to this) but your link to the conditional tags page was brilliant because I’ve found this to work:

    <?php if(is_home()) echo get_avatar( get_the_author_email(), ’50’ ); ?>
    <?php if(is_single()) echo get_avatar( get_the_author_email(), ’50’ ); ?>

    Without that page you showed me, I would never have known what to put for a post and using the (is_home) allows author pics to show on main page as well as single post pages.

    Someone cleverer than me will have a neater way to do this but I’m just delighted because it’s doing what I want it to so thank you ever so much for helping me.
    Eleanor
