Hi, I’m trying to display the latest 3 post from a specific category.

I have the following code so far, but this only displays the most recent post.(just 1)

I’m yet to create a second category, but when I do I want to also display the 3 most recent posts from this category in the sidebar too.

<div id="nav">
            <h2>Latest Posts</h2>

            <?php query_posts("post_per_page=1"); the_post(); ?>

			<h3><?php the_date(); ?></h3>
			<h4><?php the_title(); ?></h4>
			<p><?php the_excerpt(); ?>
			<br />
			<a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" title="Read More About This News Item">[ Read More ]</a></p>

        </div>

        <?php wp_reset_query(); ?>

I’ve added the following code which controls the number:
```
<?php query_posts('posts_per_page=3'); if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post();?>
```
closing the while and if loops

although interesting what one of the links you gave me said.
Does this basically do the same thing?
```
Show x Posts per page

Display 3 posts per page:

$query = new WP_Query( 'posts_per_page=3' );
```
Not sure where to put ` $query = new WP_Query( ‘cat=4’ );
` in the loop though. I’ve messed around a bit but can’t seam to get it to work.. tried putting it before the query_posts and after it, within the while loop.

the second and third link only refer to the parameters which are the same for WP_Query() and query_posts()

Not sure where to put $query = new WP_Query( 'cat=4' );

don’t get confused by $query = new WP_Query( 'posts_per_page=3' ); or so.
simply keep working with query_posts() and use the parameters from the linked refs.

example of using more than one parameter:
i.e.

<?php query_posts('posts_per_page=3&cat=4'); if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post();?>
