If it's about blogging and blogging tools we'll talk about it! But watch out we may yack a bit about programming too!
There are 2 types of include tags. The first type are have set properties. they include:
<?php get_header(); ?> // include header.php
<?php get_footer(); ?> // include footer.php
<?php get_sidebar(); ?> // include sidebar.php
<?php comments_template(); ?> // include comments.php
The second type is more flexible, you can include any file you want. You set the property:
<?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . ‘/header2.php’); ?> //notice the header2.php
there are many ways to use this. In my theme Indian Red I used it to load the 4 boxes at the top. I did this so the users could edit the files easily.
So if you wanted to show a different header section for pages than the rest of the site you could write a condition statement such as:
if (is_page())
{
include (TEMPLATEPATH . ‘/header2.php’);
} else {
get_header();
}
I’ll tell you more about condition statements later.
