WordPress Tricks: Add a div or other element to one specific page or page type

Here is the code I use to add a div or image or other element to just one page or category page of my WordPress sites:

This code will add a div with the id “featured_content” only on the home page:

<?php if ( is_home() ) { ?>
<div id="featured_content">
&nbsp;
</div>
<?php } ?>

This code would add a div with the id “featured_recipe” to all posts in the category “recipes.”:

<?php if ( is_category('recipes') ) { ?>
<div id="featured_recipe">
&nbsp;
</div>
<?php } ?>

This code would exclude “myimage.jpg” only on the Contact page:

<?php if ( !is_page('contact') ) { ?>
<img src="myimage.jpg">
<?php } ?>

As you can see, there are many uses and ways implementations of this code. Let me know if you have any questions or need further assistance.
