Can you give an example pls? What’s the code to put inside a static page to show a preview of the last post published? Thanks buddy!
1 – Create a page template to use for your main front page :
http://codex.wordpress.org/Pages#Page_Templates
Let’s say you name this template file : template_index.php
2- Use this template for your main page =>wp-admin => edit page =>page template
3- Then edit this template file as renato_s said, with a query post and a loop anywhere you want the last 5 posts to appear :
<?php query_posts('orderby=date&order=DSC&showposts=5'); ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<strong>- do your stuff (title, permalink, date, author, excerpt, etc...) -</strong>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php wp_reset_query(); ?>
Note the query_posts statement : “orderby=date&order=DSC&showposts=5”
you adjust the “showpost” variable to the number of post you want to display… In my example, it’s 5…

HI again, is it possible to make the preview whit an image too? Like this site… http://pshero.com/page/4 (I don’t know if it’s done manually or with a query).
