Newbie: I'm playing with getting blog extracts into a non wp page on my site (coolthaihouse.com). It was recommended to use get_posts. I've been playing with a small test file to see how this get_posts works. The file is at coolthaihouse/blog/wptest.php (and the text follows). The other php calls are just there to show they are 'working'. Everything returns what it should, except the get_posts doesn't seem to return anything. Can someone take a quick look at this and let me know what i need to do to get this to work??? and thakz....
<?php
/* Don't remove this line. */
require('./wp-blog-header.php');
?>
<?php bloginfo('info'); ?>
<?php wp_get_archives('monthly','all','option','','',true); ?>
<?php get_posts('numberposts=10&offset=1'); ?>
<?php get_calendar('1'); ?>

nevermind. i figured it out already! the get posts is working but doesn't display until encased in something like this (as it says on the wiki)!!!!!
<?php
$posts = get_posts('offset=1');
foreach ($posts as $post) :
?>
- "><?php the_title() ?> --- <?php the_excerpt() ?>
<?php
endforeach;
?>

No need to start a new thread!
Just continue where you've asked first: http://wordpress.org/support/3/13294

yes, correct, the post should have gone to http://wordpress.org/support/3/13294. cyber-spanking noted:) and sorry for the duplicate post here.
the code which i was trying to display above (or refer to 13294) is something like this:
<?php
$posts = get_posts('numberposts=2&offset=0');
foreach ($posts as $post) : start_wp();
?>
<?php the_date('','','',TRUE);?>
">
<?php the_title() ?> ---
<?php the_excerpt() ?>
<?php
endforeach;
?>
