• In 2.3 I was able to create a static page with a template and insert a table containing a line of code that pulled the most recent post from each category…

    The result was a page that showed the most recent title from each of the categories on the site.

    As I recall it was simply a line that said, in effect, cat=x;posts=1…

    How do I accomplish the same thing with 2.5?

    BTW, I am not even close to a coder, so I need very specific examples like… “Here’s the snippet you need… Place it after this particular semi-colon…”

    Thanks,

    The non-coder in me is trying things that seem to break templates…

    Are there any coders who have a simple solution? Not the broken templates, the code that will pull in the most recent post from specific categories…

    Most likely in the exact same way you did it before. 2.5 didn’t change *that* much.

    While I’m not sure what code you used to do it in the first place, I’m pretty sure that it will still work.

    Grr… Now if I could just remember what that was…

    Everything just looks … different … somehow…

    Back to searching the forums… ??

    Thanks,
