Please help me with this custom loop

  • Hi,

    I have been trying to archieve the same result as on https://www.designworkplan.com/ for 3 days without succes.

    The point is: In my design I only display the latest posts. Beneath I have a list with the 5 post before the latest post.

    This is my first time running WP, I looked on the codex but I just can’t do it.

    Please help me!

  • <?php
query_posts('showposts=1');
if (have_posts()) :
while (have_posts()) : the_post();
?>
  <div class="entry">
    <?php the_content(); ?>
  </div>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php endif; ?>

<?php
query_posts('showposts=5&offset=1');
if (have_posts()) :
while (have_posts()) : the_post();
?>
<ul>
<li><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></li>
</ul>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php endif; ?>

    that will show the newest post in it’s entirety (unless you use the more tag or change <?php the_content(); ?> to <?php the_excert(); ?>). then it will create a list of posts 2-6 only displaying the title of them as a link.
