   I have this page: http://www.lichens.ie/index.php and I want to pull 2 newest posts from 2 different categories. So I'm using this piece of code:

   <?php
   			 $imposts = get_posts('numberposts=1&category=4');
   			 foreach($imposts as $post) :
   			?>
   				<div class="post" id="home-page-featured-1">
   					<p class="subtitle">Lichen of the month</p>
   					<h2><a><?php the_title() ?></a></h2>
   					<?php the_content('<span class="readmore">...read more</span>'); ?>
   					<div class="clear"></div>
   				</div>
   			<?php endforeach; ?>
   
   			<?php
   			 $imposts = get_posts('numberposts=1&category=3');
   			 foreach($imposts as $post) :
   			?>
   				<div class="post" id="home-page-featured-2">
   					<p class="subtitle">Have you seen this lichen?</p>
   					<h2><a><?php the_title() ?></a></h2>
   					<?php the_content('<span class="readmore">...read more</span>'); ?>
   					<div class="clear"></div>
   				</div>
   			<?php endforeach; ?>

   ...and all I get are just titles - content won't display. Why is that so?

   Try adding setup_postdata($post); right after your foreach lines... like this:

   $imposts = get_posts('numberposts=1&category=4');
   			 foreach($imposts as $post) :
   			 setup_postdata($post);
   			?>
   				<div class="post" id="home-page-featured-1">
   					<p class="subtitle">Lichen of the month</p>
   					<h2><a><?php the_title() ?></a></h2>
   					<?php the_content('<span class="readmore">...read more</span>'); ?>
   					<div class="clear"></div>
   				</div>
   			<?php endforeach; ?>
   
   			<?php
   			 $imposts = get_posts('numberposts=1&category=3');
   			 foreach($imposts as $post) :
   			 setup_postdata($post);
   			?>
   				<div class="post" id="home-page-featured-2">
   					<p class="subtitle">Have you seen this lichen?</p>
   					<h2><a><?php the_title() ?></a></h2>
   					<?php the_content('<span class="readmore">...read more</span>'); ?>
   					<div class="clear"></div>
   				</div>
   			<?php endforeach; ?>
