Thanks Fonglh, I have done that already. Here’s what I have.
1. Custom Page Template for the home page.
2. Added New Home Page to WordPress and changed the Reading settings to point to Home Page.
3. Changed the Home Page to point to custom Home Page template.
Content from Home Page in WP is pulling in but what I need also on the home page is to pull in 3 items from my blog posts of three different categories.
LEFT BLOCK…
Will pull one (latest) content from blog related to NEWS category
MIDDLE BLOCK…
Will pull one (latest) content from blog related to RESEARCH category
RIGHT BLOCK…
Will pull one (latest) content from blog related to STUDENTS category
Hope this makes sense?
Thanks in advance.
