Want to display small intro

  • I want to display small intro matter before all posts on home page and it will come only on home page and no where else. How to do that? I tried to do it by showing post by specific ID but and exclude that post from normal loop but now this post is visible on all pages… please help. Thanks

  • have you tried creating a home.php?

    The hierarchy.

    Look for a Sticky posts plugin. Than make that intro post sticky see if it works.

    <?php query_posts('category_name=Your_Categ_Name&showposts=1'); ?>
	<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
	<div class="sidebar_cont"><?php the_content(__('Czytaj Ca?o??...')); ?></div>

	<?php endwhile;?>

    This will display post from any category U want, by its name. The problem is that when U have posts being displayed like this in for example sidebar, than when U go to single posts’s page it won’t display only intro but whole post.

    Anybody knows how to solve this please write!

    Thanks a lot
    And hope this was helpful

    Ok, problem solved. What U need to add is

    global $more;
$more = 0;

    So, query_posts, will look like this:

    <?php query_posts('category_name=Your_Categ_Name&showposts=1');
global $more;
$more = 0;
?>

    And than the part for displaying the post

    <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
	<div class="sidebar_cont"><?php the_content(__('Czytaj Ca?o??...')); ?></div>

	<?php endwhile;?>

    Ok, hope it is what U needed
