Hi moshu,
I have a template where I need to have the first post different than others, so there I use in header.php something like this:
<?php if(have_posts()): ?>
<?php query_posts('showposts=1'); ?>
<?php while(have_posts()): the_post(); ?>
....
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
and then I have another loop which is in index.php:
<?php
if (is_home()) {
$paged = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
query_posts("offset=1&paged=$paged");
echo $paged;
}
?>
...the loop...
