• Hi guys

    I’m making progress in putting together a website using WordPress for my girlfriend as a suprise at https://www.justineberry.co.uk

    I have followed the technique below to get a static front page and put the blog entries in a page titled “Blog”:

    The first thing you will want to do is to create a home page. You can do this by creating home.php in your theme directory. Next, create a blog template. The easiest way to do this is to create a file named blog.php with the following contents in your theme directory:

    <?php
    /*
    Template Name: Blog
    */
    ?>

    <?php query_posts(‘cat=-0’); //gets all posts
    load_template( TEMPLATEPATH . ‘/index.php’); //loads index
    ?>
    Log into WordPress and create a page named “Blog” with template “blog”. You’re done. The one last thing you will want to do is to update your permalinks structure to begin with “/blog/”, ie, “/blog/%year%/%monthnum%/%postname%/”. Now you have a WordPress-managed CMS with a unique front page and logically-structured blog content.

    The problem is that the wrong page tab is highlighted using this technique by the K2 theme I’m using.

    How can I get the “Blog” page tab to know it’s the current page so it inherits the right CSS style?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    ?
