    @LearningTheMarket Use the is_single() tag. And input the slug for the page inside the parentheses. For example, if you want it to show on a page with the slug “About”, use is_single(’About’).

    I hope that helps.

    Great video. My problem is that I’m not trying to get a widget on my blog pages, but rather my other non blog pages. I’ve tried using is_page(’title’) and that doesn’t work. I’ve tried using the page ID, but that didn’t work either. Any suggestions?

    Thanks for your response but Already “Author template” don’t work on my theme. So, i want to try widget logic but i can’t :(

    Whatever, thank you again.

    These two are mutually exclusive, as the ” is_author” tag only applies to archive pages, not single post pages.

    What you desire can be done with some custom programming. However, that is outside the scope of this video.

    Quick suggestions: use an author template

    not work with ->

    is_single() && is_author(’xxxx’)

    please help!

    Daryl I finally figured out what I was doing wrong. like you suggested, in_category(’X') is what i needed

    I was putting in the category slug instead of the category ID which is just the number 3.

    in_category(’3′) is all I had to do this whole time lol (i was putting in_category(’movies’).
    thanks!

    Yes, you can use the following sytnax:

    !(in_category(’trailers’))

    However, it is always best to use a whitelist approach (i.e. an inclusive model) as opposed to a blacklist (an exclusive model). It is far easier to maintain a list of “do’s” than “don’ts”.

    Hope that helps.

    awesome! thanks I’ll pm you my gtalk

  18. By DarylLozupone on Mar 15, 2010 | Reply

    The in_category tag applies to any post in the category indicated. The is_category tag applies to archive pages. I would be happy to help if you contact me directly to set up a time to meet.

    if there is a all_single_posts_but_ NOT+ (’x post, y post, z post’” lol i’d be happy

    thanks for quick responses too

    thats exactly what I did, but it doesnt discriminate correctly. what it ended up doing was not show the widget on ANY posts. I wanted 90% of my posts to show the widget and 10% (the trailer posts) to NOT show the widget. but when i do in_category(’movies’) , the widget doesn’t show up on ANY posts

    also that in_category(”) thing; i’m not sure its for posts, the codex says its for category ARCHIVE pages, not posts of specific categories

  21. By DarylLozupone on Mar 15, 2010 | Reply

    in_category(’movies’)

  22. By 50kT on Mar 15, 2010 | Reply

    How can I make a widget display not on ALL posts but only on posts of the category movies? (this way posts in the trailer category will not have the widget on it) I don’t want to have to list 900 posts for it to display on.. I’d be ok with telling it which posts to NOT display on though..
