   Is there a way to display the subjects of maybe 3 or 5 of the last posts that are not displaying on the home page so someone can click on them to go to that post?

   Thanks.

   <?php $posts=query_posts($query_string . '&posts_per_page=5&offset=3'); ?>
     <?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
       <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
         <h2><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
       <?php endwhile; ?>
     <?php else : ?>
   <?php endif; ?>

   that should show the titles of the 5 most recent posts besides the first three. So if you have 3 posts on your front page this is fine. If you have more, than adjust the offset number.

   Hi tugbucket,

   Thanks so much!

   1.) Do I just place this code into a PHP code widget?
   2.) Will the user be able to click on the subject and be taken to the page?

   Thank you!

   you put it in the PHP file and the location you want it to display and yes, the title will be a link.
