Eleven40 Welcome Text Widget Help

[seanb]

(keeping these requests separate)

URL is Decahedralist.com

I want to do the following:

1. Move the Welcome Text above the Primary Navigation (welcome text between header image and nav)

2. Only have the Welcome Text on the homepage (I don't want it on every page)

Thanks!

Change the hook location and add a conditional tag. Here's the code https://gist.github.com/braddalton/5234454

You can also reposition the secondary nav menu if needed to any hook location.

Brad, how would I modify the code you provide for the homepage only welcome text so it shows up on every page except a few specific ones?

Also, is there a way for it to never show up on a "landing page" template? I'm trying to remove it from all landing pages like this one: http://vosa.com/barclaycard-arrival-world-mastercard-40000-point-bonus/ as well as a few of my other pages.

Thanks so much for your help!

Conditional tags are what you need.

This code is one example of how to use different conditions tags after your function.

It will need to be modified to suit your own needs.

if ( !is_page_template(page_landing.php) || !is_page(array(007,008,009) ) ) {

Replace the page i.d's with your own.

If wanting to exclude post i.d's, use

if ( !is_page_template(page_landing.php) || !is_single( array( 1, 2 ) ) ) {

You could also use

if ( !is_page_template('page_landing.php') || !is_single( array( 1, 2 ) ) ) {

Thanks for the quick reply. Right now this is the code for the home feature section:

/** Add the home featured section */
add_action( 'genesis_before_content', 'eleven40_home_featured' );
function eleven40_home_featured() {
 
    if (is_active_sidebar( 'home-featured' )) {
        genesis_widget_area( 'home-featured', array(
            'before' => '<div class="home-featured widget-area">',
            'after' => '</div>'
            ) );
    }
    else {
        genesis_seo_site_description();
    }
 
}

Where do I need to put the code you recommend so the feature widget doesn't get displayed on all landing page templates and specific pages? What makes it not show up? Do I need something else after

!is_page_template(page_landing.php) || !is_page(array(007,008,009) ) ) {

to tell it to not display the feature widget?

Thanks!

Brad,

I opted to use this plugin to manage widgets being displayed/not displayed on individual pages. Feel it will be easier than editing the code each time. Is this a good idea or bad?

Now the featured area is no longer showing up on my landing pages the site's tagline is showing up. See an example here.

The page_landing.php has the following line of code in it:

//* Remove site description
remove_action( 'genesis_before_content_sidebar_wrap', 'genesis_seo_site_description' );

Any idea why the tagline is still being displayed?

Thanks!

[Brad Dalton]

Looks like you got this fixed.

I got it working by just deleting the tagline from general settings. I would prefer not to have to do that. I have put a tagline back in settings so you can see here what it looks like.

Sorry for the confusion and thanks for your help!

[Brad Dalton]

You can hide it using CSS.

.page-template-page_landing-php .site-description {
display: none;
}
