   I've tried a few searches through the forums and such and nothing solid came up for me.

   I'm trying to get the 5 most recent posts to show up in my theme like on this website towards the bottom.

   Thanks,

   This works for me:

   <?php query_posts('showposts=5'); ?>
    <ul>
     <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
       <li><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></li>
     <?php endwhile; ?>
    </ul>

   Hi,

   I'm a complete WordPress newbie and someone has asked me if they can do what's been solved above. Where do I put the code that Joyce gave?

   Thanks,

   Sean
