hello,
to call different instances of an ad supplier (startpage and rotation)
I have built two seperate header files, being (copied versions of the original) almost identical apart from the ad-call, of course.
while the standard header is still simply called “header.php”
I want my other header (with the startpage-call) to be used on the startpage only, so I called it “header-home.php”
Now – i put these two headers into the main folder of my childtheme – but that way only the normal header was used (also on the startpage)
So I imitated the folder structure in the newspaper folder, built a “parts”-folder and put a “header”-folder in there, where I placed my two header files header.php and header-home.php
Sadly to no avail: the “header-home.php” – file is not being used by the homepage. What am I doing wrong? How can I make this work?
Many thanks in advance
Hi,
So I understand that you want to display a different ad on the homepage, and the normal ad on all other pages. Try making that condition in the header template that you are using

You can use the is front page tag and create a condition in the header template

Thanks
Thank you for that – somewhere i read that building custom-headers was possible by giving them the “-site”-ending (depending on their site-title, in the given example it would have been header-home.php)…
And it did not work out as expected. Cheers!
