Customizer Add Section argument ‘active_callback’ => “is_front_page” not working

The problem was I had multiple loops that each had different queries on the front page. After making sure to reset them each time, this problem resolved itself.

For instance, my new query and loop looks like this:

query_posts( array(
    'category_name'=>"Cloud, Customer Engagement, Developers, Executive Thought Leadership, Networking, Services, Solutions, Team Engagement",
    'showposts'=>8,
    'order'=>DESC
));

// Start the loop
if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post();

    echo '<div class="post-card-wrap">';

        // Get the card
        get_category_post_card($post);

    echo '</div>';

// End the loop
endwhile; endif;

// Reset the query
wp_reset_query();
