How To Use FCG On A Specified Page In Theme

[Chentsol]

I am using the WordPress theme "StudioPress Red " by Daily Blog Tips. I would very much like to incorporate the fantastic Featured Content Gallery within a new website I am currently putting together (http://www.Chentsol-Health.com). However, I would like my homepage to be separate from featured content, and I have created a page I've called "Featured Content" where I would like to place my featured items.

PROBLEM: I am totally clueless at coding (I am only just beginning to learn PHP and HTML). I understand that I may need to edit my template file page.php AND insert the FCG code somewhere within it.

Can you help with this at all? My page.php file is fairly short and looks something like this:

<?php get_header(); ?>

<div id="contentwrapper"><div id="content">

<div class="adsense_top"><?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/adsense_top.php'); ?></div>

<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>

<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

<div class="post">
<h2 class="postTitle"><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
<div class="postContent"><?php the_content('(Read the rest of this entry...)'); ?></div>
<p class="comments"><?php comments_popup_link('Leave a Comment', 'Comments (1)', 'Comments (%)'); ?></p>
</div> <!-- Closes Post -->

<?php endwhile; ?>

<?php else : ?>

<div class="post">
<h2 class="center">Not Found</h2>
<p class="center">Sorry, but you are looking for something that isn't here.</p>
<div class="search">
<?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . "/searchform.php"); ?>
</div> <!-- Closes Search -->
</div> <!-- Closes Post -->

<?php endif; ?>

</div></div> <!-- Closes Content -->

<?php get_sidebar(); ?>

<div class="cleared"></div>

</div> <!-- Closes Main -->
<div class="bottomcurvewhite"></div>



<?php get_footer(); ?>

Thanks in advance for all your help.

You can use this technique on page.php file probably after this line:
<div class="adsense_top"><?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/adsense_top.php'); ?></div>

Code: Select all

<?php if (is_page('Featured Content') )
{
include (ABSPATH . '/wp-content/plugins/featured-content-gallery/gallery.php');
}
?>

This would mean, when page.php loads, it checks if name of this page is "Featured Content", if yes, it will present the gallery...

Hi Yelena,

That was fantastic advice - it worked a treat, and I only had to try once. Your head is full of poetry, girl.
