Thanks a lot… This saves me multiple loops and else statements. In the end I actually used this though:
<?php if ( (is_home() && !in_category('6')) || !is_home() ) { ?>
It works perfect…(although the brackets are making me dizy as well;-)

Sweet… Thanks… (It works)

Yup, I thought about that, but if the page is not home, then the loop will not be gone through. Yet I also want the loop to show if the page is not home. The loop should only be wrapped in the !in_category(‘6’) conditional if I am on the home page, otherwise not. With the above solution the loop wouldn’t display it at all on those other pages.

ok, sorry, in that case I didn’t get the question…

I now have this code:

<?php get_header(); ?>
<?php $i = 1; ?>
<div class="firstpost"><!--First Post-->
<?php rewind_posts(); ?>
<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<?php if ( $i == 1 ) { ?>
The first post
<?php }?>
<?php $i=$i+1; ?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php else : ?>

<?php _e('Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.'); ?>

<?php endif; ?>
</div>

<div class="primary"><!--Other Posts-->
<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<?php if ( $i > 1 ) { ?>
All the other stuff
<?php } ?><!-- End if i>1-->
<?php $i=$i+1; ?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php else : ?>

<?php _e('Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.'); ?>

<?php endif; ?>
</div>

<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>

However, the first post appears twice. What am I doing wrong?

Have a look at https://automattic.com/code/widgets/
I use it to specify the sidebar options that stay the same for all sites of my blog. After the dynamic sidebar, I just put my own code (for example related posts), which only appears depending on the kind of page that you are on.
Have a look if it works for you…

(Just replying to get this post back to the top) Can anyone have a loo at the post before this… I tried quite a few things, but that only messes up everything: (Nothing will show anymore…)
Thanks,

Sweet, this works….
I am assuming that I keep all the other code the same (in index.php and in the sidebar.php)? The link that I posted before also told me to insert other code… That stays the way it is, right? Or does it not have any function anymore?

Oh, and one more question:
Since I inserted the code (look in the link) into my loop, it will not display the content of the aside in my main content anymore. (Which is good.) However, I do want it to show if I am on a single page: I have this code in my loop now:

<?php rewind_posts(); ?>
<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<?php if ( !(in_category(‘6’)) ) { ?>
THE LOOP
<?php } ?>
<?php endwhile; else: ?>
<?php _e(‘Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.’); ?>
<?php endif; ?>

How do I have to change the line <?php if ( !(in_category(‘6’)) ) { ?> so that the loop is not executed for all asides, except when the page is a single page? (Sorry, wordpress newbie)
Thanks a looot already, dl33

“I put my asides in the sidebar.”
I used the way described in https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Adding_Asides#Displaying_Asides_on_the_Sidebar
Should I use another more convienient way?
I want all asides (the most recent ones) to show on the sidebar, no matter what page you are on. (All pages that load sidebar.php should show the asides.)

HI mdp1,
did you find out how to do this yet…? I am looking for the same answer!
Thanks, dl33

Another Question: How would I indent the top menu text from the right and center it vertically? I tried padding, but that also shifts the backgrund image, which I do not want…

Hi,

although this might not really help you, it might help others to help you. (Especially since English is more common language than Italian. — at least in forums;-)
This is the error message that Safari displays:
Safari can’t open the page “feed://www.davidemuci.it/blog/feed??. The error was: “unknown error?? (NSURLErrorDomain:-1
Have you tried changing the formatting of the feed?
A working feed reads like this at the top:
<!doctype HTML PUBLIC “-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN”>
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv=”Content-Type” content=”text/html; charset=”UTF-8″ />

etc..

I am not sure this is of help, I hope it though;-),dl33

Ok, sure, lets post ’em here. (sorry about that)
Some of the problems that I have are:
– There is a big space after the first post. (css related? why?)
– The menu doesn’t float to the the very top.
– The footer does not want to stretch 100% of the width of the window.

Also I would really like to have some feedback on what I did up to now. (but remember its a betagious beta. (not anywhere near beeing finished) Feedback would really help me to make it better.
Thanks a loot already, dl33
