Odd Problem with Feature Box not showing on one single page…

Hi Ryan,

Love the theme by the way! Smile

I've run into a bit of an odd problem. I'm setting up my blog to show my salesletter on the home page, and the blog at the location http://www.domain.com/blog.

In the theme settings, I've set the feature box to be displayed to 'All'. And sure enough, it shows up on every single page….

…except the http://www.domain.com/blog page.

Any idea why this might be?

Under Settings -> Reading in WP, I've told it to use a static page for my home page (domain.com/home), and the blog page for my posts (domain.com/blog).

Is my problem in that setup, or is there something else going on that I'm missing?

Thanks!

This is a little issue due to WP being difficult about the is_home and is_front_page tags when you put your blog on a different page than the home page. I can help you use slightly different code if you need to get it to work. Just PM me your blog URL and we'll go from there.

Ryan, I've got the same problem, except that my blog is on a top level domain and the home page shows posts (not a static page).

 

I have set the options for the feature area to show on all pages, and it does, EXCEPT for the home page.

 

Please advise.

Thx

Had problem with top feature not showing on homepage. Worked on any other page.

Top feature was working at first, but after changing it not to show in anywhere, didnt get it back to show on homepage, no matter what the setting was.

 

Got it fixed by editing main index template (index.php)

       <?php if ( is_front_page())  { ?> to <?php if ( is_home())  { ?>

Is this coding you added to the index.php or is it located somewhere within the page and needs editing to look as you've written it?
