   Hi,

   im dont get this. I want to show an post from a special category and additionally show the news from special other categories beneath it in a 2nd loop.

   I tried:

   <?php $my_query = new WP_Query('category_name=featured&showposts=1');
     while ($my_query->have_posts()) : $my_query->the_post();
     $do_not_duplicate = $post->ID;?>
       <!-- Do stuff... -->
     <?php endwhile; ?>
       <!-- Do other stuff... -->
     <?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post();
     if( $post->ID == $do_not_duplicate ) continue; update_post_caches($posts); ?>
      <!-- Do stuff... -->
     <?php endwhile; endif; ?>

   It works pretty good, but the only problem is, that i can not definy categories to exclude in the 2nd continuing loop.
   How to do that? Demo: http://www.vortex-club.de/

   found out myself:

   add if (in_category('9')) continue; for a category to exclude in 2nd lopp

   <?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); if (in_category('9')) continue; if (in_category('3')) continue;
   		  if( $post->ID == $do_not_duplicate ) continue; update_post_caches($posts); ?>
