    Hi,
    I've just started digging into using hooks and filter and it's been quite the rocky road.
    I'm trying to add a include to just the homepage of my theme. I need the hook function to contain the include as well as some html.
    Right now the include is showing up on every page and when I try to make it just show up on homepage I get the frustrating blank screen.

    Below is my code:

    function gallery_include() { ?>
<?php include (STYLESHEETPATH . "/gallery.php"); ?>
<?php }
add_action('thematic_abovecontainer','gallery_include');

    What do I need to add?

    Thanks

    you need conditional logic

    okay,
    I've tried this code:

    function gallery_include() {
	if(is_front_page()) {
 echo '<?php include (STYLESHEETPATH . "/gallery.php") ?>';
  }
}
add_action('thematic_abovecontainer','gallery_include', 1);

    And my slideshow completely disappears.

    if the first code you posted worked.. why did you change other things besides the conditionals?

    no idea if this works but, what about:

    function gallery_include() {
if(is_front_pageI()){
   include (STYLESHEETPATH . "/gallery.php");
 }
}
add_action('thematic_abovecontainer','gallery_include');

    there's a mistake in your code helgatheviking ;)


    function gallery_include() {
    if(is_front_page()){
    include (STYLESHEETPATH . "/gallery.php");
    }
    }
    add_action('thematic_abovecontainer','gallery_include');
