Choose which catagories are displayed on the homepage

  • Without setting a static page, how can I set my homepage to only display the latest posts in categories I specify? I want to post articles related to a topic my blog does not normally count (related to Music instead of Technology) but I do not want these articles displayed to a majority of my visitors, unless they found it on a search engine or a linkback.

    In other news: Just got my test scores back, I received a 55/60, stupid machine counted it wrong. I had 57/60!

  • make backup copy before editing theme files

    you could try and put a conditional query into index.php; just before the start of the loop. something like this:

    <?php if( is_home() ) :
$paged = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1; query_posts('cat=1,5,9,23&paged=' . $paged);
endif; ?>

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