php - How to display different content on different title page in WordPress -

i have wordpress template , trying display different content on different categories pages:

single_cat_title(''); 

how use in php template? when have category (e.g. category-1) need display different content category (e.g. category-2).

if single_cat_title(''); category-1 display content-1 else display content-1  

i can think of 2 solutions.

1. you make use of category templates. idea behind them create separate php file each category. can use names category-1.php, category-2.php etc. category ids or category-name.php, category-other-name.php etc. category names. avoid writing same pieces of code in each of files, should put shared code in file or multiple files (e.g. shared.php or, better, header.php, footer.php , on). can wrap shared code in functions more control. include shared file(s) in category templates , call functions:

   include('shared.php'); // including shared code show_header(); // our function displaying header /* * category-specific stuff */ show_footer(); // our function displaying footer 

2. you can use single category template (category.php default), check current category , perform different actions different categories. there special function checking category, called is_category(). this:

   //(...) header code here  if(is_category('some_category')) {         // perform specific actions } else if(is_category('other_category')) {         // perform specific actions } else {         // unknown category. perform specific actions }  // (...) footer code here
