[Resolved] Is it possible to show on element only on the first page or an archive?

[Samuel]

The subject says it all–is there a way I can show an element on a blog page but only on the first page?

Hi there,

See the second example here:
https://docs.generatepress.com/article/generate_header_element_display/#examples

Adding PHP: https://docs.generatepress.com/article/adding-php/

Let me know if this helps 🙂

Unless I’m missing something this doesn’t cover my use case. My use case is:

On the blog page insert a block element using the before content hook.

However I want to only show this element on the first page of the blog archive.

It should work just with a different filter:

add_filter( 'generate_block_element_display', function( $display ) {
    if ( is_paged() ) {
       $display = false;
    }

    return $display;
} );

Let me know 🙂

Got it–what is available to the filter to target that one element? Is the id, etc passed to the filter?

[Leo]

Yup – check out the first example here:

Got it thanks

[Leo]

No problem 🙂
