Hide/Show Widgets/Gadgets In Home/Post/Static/Archive Pages In Blogger

Once you activate any widget, in your blog, it will be displayed in all the pages by default, including your homepage.But what if you want a certain widget to appear only on a certain page or pages, can it be done? Yes You can do this easily using conditional tags.

first go to Blogger’s Dashboard > Design > Page Elements tab and add a “HTML/JavaScript” gadget.
I prefer it because it will be easy for everyone to understand. Give it a unique title so that it does not match with any of the titles of other widgets added.

Go to Dashboard > Design > Edit HTML.
Check the Expand Widget Templates check box on top right of the HTML window.
Find your widget in the HTML by using Ctrl+F and entering the widget Id in the search box.
Let’s say I have given the title for my widget as “Recent Comments”. After searching you will find the below snippets:

It’s the widget/gadget that you have added from Page Elements tab. All is left is to add conditional tags just below and above to hide the widget form specific pages or posts in Blogger. Let us see some examples:

To show the widget only in HomePage

To Show Blogger Widget in Post Pages only

To show the widget in any particular page

To hide a widget only in a particular page

To show widgets only in Archive Pages

To show widgets only in Static Pages

To hide widgets in Static Pages

The code will check whether the condition is true or false:

• If the result is true, it executes (and display) the widget’s content.
• If the result is false, it skips the content and hide the widget.

Click Save Template button and view your blog.
That’s all:)
