Templates Display Conditions

Display conditions control which templates appear on which pages. You can assign different headers, footers, and other theme parts to specific pages, post types, or your entire site. The Trigger demo uses this to show different header layouts on different pages.

How Display Conditions Work

Each template can have Include and Exclude rules:

Condition	Result
Include: Entire Site	Shows on all pages
Include: Entire Site + Exclude: Contact	Shows everywhere except Contact page
Include: Page A, Page B	Shows only on those specific pages

Exclude rules always override Include rules on the same template.
