   On my websites frontpage, /index.php, I'd like to have a list of the five most recent articles in the "frontpage" category.

   I think I need to create a loop on this page using WP functions that live somewhere in the main /blog/ directory.

   How do I get a list of the last five articles in a category to be displayed on my website other than on the main blog page!?

   Thanks!

   See that for how to make use of WordPress features on a non-WordPress PHP document.

   See that for how to initialize a post loop. You can use it to set only one category, # of posts, etc.
