Admin posts in Home page

  • For the Home page I have created wordpress page and made it as index page (not using index.php). I want to display recent 3 posts in that page. The following code works in side bar.php but not in home page wordpress page. I installed execphp.

    <?php
if (is_page()) {
  $cat=get_cat_ID($post->post_title); //use page title to get a category ID
  $posts = get_posts ("cat=$cat&showposts=3");
  if ($posts) {
    foreach ($posts as $post):
      setup_postdata($post); ?>
      <div class="postlists">
         <div class="posttitle">
              <a>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a>
	     </div>
	     <?php the_excerpt() ?>
      </div>
    <?php endforeach;
  }
}
?>

    [Moderator Note: Please post code or markup snippets between backticks or use the code button.]

    Any help?

    I solved it with echo as below:

    <?php if (is_page()) {
$cat=get_cat_ID($post->post_title); //use page title to get a category ID
$posts = get_posts ("cat=$cat&showposts=3");
if ($posts) {
foreach ($posts as $post):
setup_postdata($post); ?>
<div class="postlists"><div class="posttitle">
<a href="<?php echo get_permalink($post->ID); ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php echo $post->post_title; ?></a>
</div>
<?php the_excerpt() ?></div>
<?php endforeach;
}
}
?>
