WordPress Page and Post Customization

After a plugin is installed and activated to a WordPress site, you may find that the plugin shows up on each and every page(or post). However, you only want the plugin to show up on the home page, or a specific page. WordPress has built-in functions to allow you to add code to files such as index.php, page.php and category.php so that you can customize on which places should display the plugin.

The code below can be used within index.php or page.php to allow only the home page to display the plugin called with the function. 

The code below can be used within index.php or page.php to allow only the front page to display the plugin called with the function. 

The code below can be used within single.php to allow only the specified post to display the plugin called with the function.
