Do you want to show Blogger widgets only on the homepage of your Blogger blog? You’re in the right place. In this tutorial, I will guide you step-by-step on how to show Blogger widgets only on your homepage by inserting conditional tags in your theme.

On Blogger layout, if you add a widget on Header, Footer, and Main Body it appears on both homepage and other pages. Sometimes it becomes unnecessary to display a widget on all pages, so in order to restrict a Blogger widget only to homepage you can insert conditional tags in you theme.

How to Show Blogger Widgets Only on Homepage

Follow the steps to insert conditional tags for a widget in your Blogger theme in order to restrict it to homepage only.

• Click the Theme from the Sidebar.
• Click the Downward Arrow attached to CUSTOMIZE button.

• Click the Edit HTML option.

• Click the “Jump to widget” icon located at top to directly reach the code of the widget.

• Choose the widget from the list. Remember that custom widgets will not be listed by their name, they will be listed by Id like HTML1, HTML2…, but once you click a widget from the list you can see its “Title” and “Id“, as I have shown in the next step.

When you click the widget its starting line will be at top. Widget body starts from the line like this:

<b: widget id='HTML2' locked='false' title='Our Authors' type='HTML'>

Now slowly scroll down till you reach the line:

<b:includable id='main'><-></b:includable>

Click on the Black Arrow to expand the code if it is already not expanded.

Paste this condition below the line <b:includable id=’main’>, as I have shown.

<b:if cond='data:blog.url == data:blog.homepageUrl'>

To close the condition Paste </b:if> just before </b:includable> Like:

</b:if>
</b:includable>
</b:widget>

The widget body (code) ends at </b:widget>.

• Save the theme.
• Open your blog/website and check whether the widget is appearing on the other pages or not.
