So how would a mini loop work? I mean like I can set my main top five stories and be done with those. Then put the

<?php query('cat=35'); ?>

But how would I initiate the loop from there?

Hello?

I copied arc-cont.php page from the example on the link you provided. I just need to know how to visit the page now. I mean, when I try to use the url mywebdomainname.com/wp-content/themes/themename/arc-cont.php it doesn’t work.

Anyone?

Thanks this helps a ton! The only concern I have is the code that is the rest of the page. The first five posts show up great, but after that I need to put in the code for the middle of my page. Then the remaining posts are put in. This loop makes it so it repeats all the code of my page over and over. Would I be better of writing the post data to a remote file and then including it when I need it later in the page?

That part makes sense, but I wanted to store the post data in an array so I could display the title of a post as a link to the actual page of the post.

My posts appear on my homepage showing three things: title of post (as a link to the page), date, and a small paragraph excerpt. That is how I want the top 5 posts to remain, but the remaining 9 posts need to only have the title as a link and the date. Is there a way I can do this without writing a custom query?
