  Hey Everyone,
  I’ve been stumbled for a while now. I’m trying to create two different headers using one wordpress theme. The problem Im having is that specfic categories or post does not follow the correct theme. Instead, it ends up using both headers that I have created which creates a mix of different styles. It’s a mess really. I’m thinking that it has something to do with how I’m calling items in my header.php.

  here is site: http://fiusm.sprocklab.com/category/radiatefm/

  any help would be great.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  here is the header code:

  <?php

  if ( is_home() || in_category(‘News’) || in_category(‘Sports’) || in_category(‘Life’) || in_category(‘Opinion’) || in_category(‘Video’) || in_category(‘Featured’) || in_category(‘Uncategorized’))
  {
  echo ‘in FIU’;

  include(TEMPLATEPATH.’/header-fiusm.php’);
  }

  /* localhost */
  if (in_category(’23’) || in_category(’24’) || in_category(’25’) || in_category(’26’) || in_category(’27’) || in_category(’28’) ||in_category(’29’) || in_category(’30’)){
  echo ‘in radaite radatiearr’;

  include(TEMPLATEPATH.’/header-radiate.php’);
  }

  else if(
  is_category(‘radiatefm’) ||
  is_category(‘about-radiate’) ||
  is_category(‘djs’) ||
  is_category(‘music’) ||
  is_category(‘playlists’) ||
  is_category(‘promotions’) ||
  is_category(‘schedule’)||
  is_category(‘staff’))
  {
  include(TEMPLATEPATH.’/header-radiate.php’);
  }

  else{
  echo ‘fiu’;
  include(TEMPLATEPATH.’/header-fiusm.php’);

  }

  ?>
