Unique index page

  • Hi all,

    I’m relatively new to wordpress still and am working on a new theme.

    I’m hoping to have an index page which is pretty much static but it is unique in the sense that it’s not going to look anything like the other pages.

    Whats more I’d then like to add a ‘gallery’ type page making the most of the loop (but again a unique page) which then links to a single.php page.

    I’m used to using expression engine as a CMS but still getting to grips with wordpress. How do I go about creating these pages? Any links people could point me to or advice they could give?

    Cheers!

    Keith

    Hi,

    I saw the mentioned article but what I’m wanting to do is have a unique index page featuring a number of unique divs and layout. Not a static page. I know how to do this with EE but it’s driving me barmy trying to figure it out in WP. Any advice? I don’t want a static page but a unique page.

    update –

    I’m now using a custom page which I’ve discovered.

    However I’m using a loop on this page, for some reason the loop I’ve created is looping the page ‘Home’ (The Page Name) rather than my posts. Any advice?

    Also, is there anyway I can limit the posts to display the 4 most recent posts? Would a regular php while loop work?

    Thanks!

    Keith
