  1. POWordpress conditional statements not working
    text
    copied!<p>I'm setting up some conditional statements to change my page layout for different pages. My first conditional says </p> <pre><code>if (is_page('15030')) { } </code></pre> <p>The content inside that one is for the homepage, and works perfectly. Then my next one says </p> <pre><code>elseif (is_page('Sales')){ } </code></pre> <p>And it doesn't work at all. I've tried using the page name, page ID, changing elseif to if, using in_category - nothing is showing up at all. Any idea what I should look for that could cause that? I noticed that I set up "sales" as a category of posts, and when I created the Sales page, it is automatically showing the posts from the sales category, which is what I wanted, but I'm not sure if that would be affecting it at all?</p> <p>The code is located in custom_functions.php. Here is the complete code:</p> <pre><code>function custom_template() { if (is_page('15030')) : ?&gt; &lt;!--Technology Section--&gt; &lt;div id="content"&gt; &lt;div id="post-&lt;?php the_ID(); ?&gt;" class="post_box top"&gt; &lt;a class="scroll" id="technology"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;div class="left"&gt; &lt;a href="index.php?page_id=15174"&gt;&lt;img src="../../../images/businessbee/blog/tech-bubble.gif" alt="Technology" class="bubble"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;h3&gt;&lt;a href="index.php?page_id=15174"&gt;Technology&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h3&gt; &lt;p&gt;Technology upgrades don't have to break the bank.
