  • Do you have a single.php template in your theme? If yes, put the code into that template file.
    I the answer is no, then you’ll have to use some if statement in the index.php file to display it only when a single post is viewed. See the conditional template tags in the Codex.

    well i can’t figure that out – i’m not to much into programing – possibly a little help from someone?

    Nevermind – I did have a single.php – sorry about that – it now works! Check it out! https://www.frosblog.com

    Now is there a way to put the recent entries at the very bottom of the blog… lets say I only have a couple of post on the main page, and want to list, lets say, 5 entries below that, is it possible to put those five only on the main page at the bottom?

    You probably can. Put it AFTER the loop, just before the “next-previous” code.
