wordpress is_home() || is_index() possible?

Question

I have a test in my header.php to see whether we are at home to display a hero or not.

Answer 1

Try out is_front_page() from the Wordpress conditional tags list.

It is true when you are on the "Front Page" of your wordpress installation, which is:

• The posts page if you have set your front page to your blog/posts
• The page you have designated as your front page, if you are using a page instead of your posts
