anyone ?

thank you moshu, I think you cleared everything up

How’d you get the different post to load for the different categories?

Trent I have mod_rewrite working for me. My regular posts show just as I customized my permlinks to show. https://www.domainname.com/this-is-a-post-topic/2007/03

But I just created a Page Template named about.php
and on my homepage I want to point wordpress to that file.

right now Im doing something like
href=”https://www.domainname.com/about.php”>About

what I want to know is how can I get wordpress to actually link it as https://www.domainname.com/about

Here is the actual code in the index.php

The code below is the error msg when I try and load the blog.

any idea whats happening by looking at the first post’s lke

moshu or adam:
can you explain a little about the code Im fairly new to php programming and is trying to understand php and program with it as I go

like why did he increment the $i and
how does wp know that it was the most recent post using that code?…does the content() load a certan way? or something..

adam thank you for your help but I title the post the wrong way. I titled it using ‘the first post
actually I needed to style the most recent post.
