Here is a quick code to check if the current page is homepage or not.
if($this->getIsHomePage()) { echo 'You are in Homepage!'; } else { echo 'You are NOT in Homepage!'; }
Below is an alternative way to check for homepage:-
$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!'; }
Hope this helps. Thanks.
