I would like to add “the grid” above the header in the icon theme. I have the child theme icon/views/wp-header ready to go but I can’t find the PHP to add.

Thanks!

Hi there,

Thanks for writing in.

You can add it like this to your custom wp-header.php

<?php echo do_shortcode('[your_the_grid_shortcode_here]'); ?>

Then replace [your_the_grid_shortcode_here] with your shortcode that can be found at your the grid’s admin page.

Thanks!

This worked great.

One last thing, what would I do if I wanted it only on certain pages. Or maybe just the home page?

Thanks!!

Hello There,

If you want to display it on certain pages only, you can add a condition in the code like this:

<?php 

  if ( is_home() ) {
    echo do_shortcode('[your_the_grid_shortcode_here]'); 
  } elseif ( is_page('123') ) {
    echo do_shortcode('[your_the_grid_shortcode_here]'); 
  }

?>

To know more about these conditional tags, please check out the codex: https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/basics/conditional-tags/

To get the page ID, you can check it here: https://community.theme.co/kb/how-to-locate-post-ids/

Hope this helps.

Can we just say that the homepage is page 6 and only show it on that page or do we need to have all of the other page numbers present?

Hi there,

There is no need, you can reduce it to this if you’re only targeting the home page.

<?php 

  if ( is_home() ) {
    echo do_shortcode('[your_the_grid_shortcode_here]'); 
  } 

?>

Thanks!
