thumbnail of latest post on main page….

<?php
$args=array(
  'cat' => 6,
  'post_type' => 'post',
  'post_status' => 'publish',
  'posts_per_page' => 1,
  'caller_get_posts'=> 1
);
$my_query = null;
$my_query = new WP_Query($args);
if( $my_query->have_posts() ) {
  while ($my_query->have_posts()) : $my_query->the_post(); ?>
    <p><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></p>
    <?php
    $attachments = get_posts( array(
    'post_type' => 'attachment',
     'number_posts' => 1,
    'post_status' => null,
    'post_parent' => $my_query->post->ID,
    'orderby' => 'post_date',
    'order' => 'DESC',
    ) );
    if ($attachments) {
      $thumbnail_id = $attachments[0]->ID;
      echo wp_get_attachment_image( $thumbnail_id );
    }
  endwhile;
}
wp_reset_query();  // Restore global post data stomped by the_post().
?>

doesnt work…
i tried adding it in index but nothing happened…..
?

Please paste all the code from the theme template file (including the code that you used from the example above) into a pastebin such as wordpress.pastebin.com, and report the link back here. Maybe someone can spot your problem. Thanks..

hm
ok
here :

seems i can get the text from the post but not the thumbnail or the image itself….?

and when i clock the text it all jumps left but i guess this has to do with the css of course and that i have to change something there to centre all….

however, still no image…

Looks okay to me and it works for me…
after ‘if ($attachment)` you might put this to see what it is returning:

echo "<pre>"; print_r($attachments); echo "</pre>";

Hey again, still cant make it work…
so again.

what i want is simply to get the latest posts in one category “NEWS” as the index page….
how to do this?
