How to Add Theme Specific Conditional Code in WordPress

Are you looking for a way to add theme specific conditional code? While there’s probably a plugin for this, we have created a quick code snippet that you can use to add theme specific conditional code in WordPress.

This can be used for the conditional code for a specific theme only. It can only be used in conjunction with “theme switching plugins” if the desired “theme specific plugin” comes after the “theme switch plugin” in order of execution.

Instructions:

All you have to do is add this code to your theme’s index.php file:

<?php
	if (get_current_theme() == 'Theme Name') {
		echo '# code...';
	}
?>
