   Good day

   I would like to know how I can make new posts on my blog that will:
   - NOT be shown on the home page, only on another page
   - be shown on the home page AND another page

   for example: the blog has a news section - i would like to post some "news" that i would like displayed on the home page as well as the News page... How do i do this? (i have already created categories for each of the pages)

   Blog available here

   Thanks in advance.

   You could modify the loop in your theme's index.php file to only show posts from the news category. See this page on query_posts().

   Place the following code before The Loop in your theme's index.php.

   <?php
      if (is_home()) {
         query_posts("cat=4");
      }
   ?>

   ok, did that... that has now taken away all posts on the home page away, and show only the post in category 4 (events). what i want it to do is show that post on the events page, which it is not...

   (would this not be easier over IM?)
