Create a post list of a specified category with thumb

  • Hi everyone.

    I have to list 5 latest post of the category “news” of my website ( ) like in this pic:
    <img>    https://www.lucagrandicelli.com/wp-content/gallery/special-recent-posts-pro/1_recent_posts.jpg</img&gt;
    I found the Special Recent Post Plugin (the screen before) but the point if that i need a validate website and it cause about 20 errors…

    I searched in many sites but i didn’t succeed in find a “Manual Code” Solution… All don’t work like this one:

    <?php query_posts('category_name=news&showposts=5'); ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
        <li><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>">
          <?php the_title(); ?>
	<strong><?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?></strong>
	<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
          </a>  </li>
        <?php endwhile; ?>

    Everything is displayed,but not the post image…

    Thanks in advance!
