Home Page showing as inside page

[Renuka_dev]

Hi,

We are facing some issues on applying condition to the inside page of the website. When we use this condition:

if($this->getIsHomePage()) {
    echo 'You are in Homepage!';
} else {
    echo 'You are NOT in Homepage!';
}

The result is home page is mostly displaying 'You are NOT in Homepage!'. Few times displays 'You are in Homepage!'. I tried clearing the cache in Magento but it does not help.

Same problem with:

if(Mage::getBlockSingleton('page/html_header')->getIsHomePage())

Best regards,
-Renuka

Hi @Renuka_dev,

Could you please try this alternative method?

$routeName = Mage::app()->getRequest()->getRouteName(); 
$identifier = Mage::getSingleton('cms/page')->getIdentifier();

if($routeName == 'cms' && $identifier == 'home') {
    echo 'You are in Homepage!';
} else {
    echo 'You are NOT in Homepage!';
}

Best regards.

Gabriel
