Take a look at the is_admin() conditional tag: function wpse106895_dummy_func() { if ( ! is_admin() ) { // do your thing } } add_action( ‘some-hook’, ‘wpse106895_dummy_func’ ); is_admin() returns true, if the URL being accessed is in the dashboard / wp-admin. Hence it’s negation (via the not operator) is true when in the frontend. Update, … Read more
is_plugin_active() is rather fragile: it will break when either the plugin author renames the main file or when the user renames the plugin’s directory or main file.

The best way to approach this situation is via JavaScript. That way, whenever the selected value changes, you can instantly hide/show the related metabox. Use wp_enqueue_script() in functions.php to load a custom JavaScript file in the admin area: add_action(‘admin_enqueue_scripts’, ‘my_admin_script’); function my_admin_script() { wp_enqueue_script(‘my-admin’, get_bloginfo(‘template_url’).’/my-admin.js’, array(‘jquery’)); } The script itself, which requires jQuery, simply hides … Read more

Use the global $pagenow, which is a common global set by WordPress at runtime: if ( $GLOBALS[‘pagenow’] === ‘wp-login.php’ ) { // We’re on the login page! } You can also check the type of login page, for example registration: if ( $GLOBALS[‘pagenow’] === ‘wp-login.php’ && ! empty( $_REQUEST[‘action’] ) && $_REQUEST[‘action’] === ‘register’ ) … Read more
