Thank you very much for this.

I tried the code you mentioned and it output the same as the previous code.

However, I think I am doing it incorrectly, I am putting the above code inside:

<?php if ( have_posts() ) while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>

<?php endwhile; ?>

Is this the problem?

I removed the if have posts code but then it only showed one category.

Sorry about this ??

Sorry one last question… is there a way to only output each categories once: displaying the featured image from the most recent post?

Currently is it listing each post with a link to it’s category.

Epic. If I knew you, I would kiss you.

Thanks so much jkovis, really appreciate your help ??

Sorry, it’s hard to explain.

The website has a blog, and a news section.

I have split these up by creating a blog category and a news category and pulling posts to each category into their relevant section using query_posts

For example, this is how I pull in the content from the news category:

`<?php require(‘blog/wp-blog-header.php’);
query_posts(‘cat=4&showposts=4’);
while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<h2 class=”blog_title”><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
<div class=”news_content”><?php the_content(‘…’); ?></div>
<p class=”news_date”> Article Posted On <?php the_time(‘F jS, Y’) ?></p>
<?php endwhile;
?>

Sorry, this forum always cuts off half of my post … I hope that explains it OK.

I am just using one WP Blog for news and blog section. Contemplating just making the News section another blog altogether.

Hi moshu, sorry, will try to explain it better.

I have split up the wp database into two, a blog and a news section to display diff kinds of posts.

I am calling in posts to the blog by specific category, and posts to news the same way using the following php:
<?php query_posts(‘cat=1,3&showposts=2’);

PS, it cut off half my post … above uses the_exceprt to show a snippet, if you want the whold post use <?php the_content(); ?> instead.

Sure .. enter this code on your homepage:

<?php
require(‘**manually enter path to**/wp-blog-header.php’);
query_posts(‘showposts=1’);
while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<small><?php the_time(‘F jS, Y’) ?></small>
” rel=”bookmark” title=”Permanent Link to
<?php the_title(); ?>”><?php the_title(); ?>
<?php the_excerpt(‘…’); ?>
<?php endwhile;
?>
