multiple content areas on index.php page

  • So i am not sure where to put this so i thought misc was a good idea.

    Here is the site: lisacstyles.com

    this is the index page for typical blog posts. however, i also want to be able to edit the section at top left “travel in style” within the cms.

    is this possible? i dont even really know how to ask this question properly i am sorry but basically it seems like 2 seperate blogs on the same page, one being the loop and the other more like a “page” style but both on the index page. i did the theme and know a bit about WP but just not quite enough i guess.

    i have searched for a mirroring plugin or something but cant seem to get a good solution.

    thanks

  • There are several ways to handle this, but the answer depends somewhat on exactly how your theme works. I would recommend using either a Static Front Page, or a special home.php template.

    In either case you will need multiple loops: one for the ‘travel in style’ (tis) and another for the regular posts.

    You could give the tis posts a category and retrieve the latest post in that category for the tis section. You would also exclude those posts from the regular loop.

    Another choice would be to create a special post type for the tis posts and retrieve those. Those would not show up in a standard loop.
