   Hi!

   I have a small problem with the loop of my index. I'm using this template:

   http://wpthemedesigner.com/demo/index.php?wptheme=The+RedMMOZine

   As you can see, is a magazine theme with an easy structure:

   New 1 (the latest, with a different css than other posts)
   and below, in 2 columns
   New 1 New 2
   New 3 New 4
   New 5 New 6

   The trouble is i dont want a duplicate New 1, in the latest and in the posts. I mean i want:

   New 1
   New 2 New 3
   New 4 New 5
   New 6 New 7

   I don't know what i've done wrong in my loop, but this is my index.php (i've excluded a category as you can see):

   <!-- BEGIN content -->
   <div id="content">
   
   	<?php
   	if (have_posts()) : the_post();
   	?>
   	<?php
   	if (is_home()) { query_posts("cat=-6");
   	}
   	?>
   
   	<!-- begin latest post -->
   	<div class="latest post">
   
   		<h2><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
   		<p class="details">
   		<?php the_time('j F Y') ?> por <?php the_author_posts_link(); ?> &nbsp;| &nbsp;<?php comments_popup_link('Sin comentarios', '1 Comentario', '% Comentarios'); ?>
   		</p>
   		<a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php dp_attachment_image($post->ID, 'thumbnail', 'alt="' . $post->post_title . '"'); ?></a>
   		<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
   		<p class="bottom"><a class="continue" href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>">Leer + </a></p>
   	</div>
   	<!-- end latest post -->
   
   	<?php endif; ?>
   
   	<?php
   	if (have_posts()) :
   	while(have_posts()) : the_post();
   	?>
   
   	<!-- begin post -->
   	<div class="post">
   		<h2><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
   		<p class="details">
   		<?php the_time('j F Y') ?> por <?php the_author_posts_link(); ?> &nbsp;| &nbsp;<?php comments_popup_link('Sin comentarios', '1 Comentario', '% Comentarios'); ?>
   		</p>
   		<a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php dp_attachment_image($post->ID, 'thumbnail', 'alt="' . $post->post_title . '"'); ?></a>
   		<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
   		<p class="bottom"><a class="continue" href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>">Leer +</a>
   		</p>
     </div>
   	<!-- end post -->
   
   	<?php endwhile; ?>

   Can you help me with this??? Thanks a lot and sorry if i haven't explained myself correctly...

   Try changing this:

   <?php
      if (is_home()) { query_posts("cat=-6");
      }
   ?>

   to this:

   <?php
      if (is_home()) { query_posts("cat=-6");
         $latestid = $post->ID;
      }
   ?>

   And this:

   <?php
      if (have_posts()) :
      while(have_posts()) : the_post();
   ?>

   to this:

   <?php
      if (have_posts()) :
      while(have_posts()) : the_post();
      if ($post->ID == $latestid) continue;
   ?>

   Thanks mate!

   It worked but with a 'but'. The ("cat=-6") doesn't work in Latest Post. It hasn't any sense... i think i can 'survive' with your answer, but... any suggestion for excluding the category in the Latest Post?

   I thought your code was working except for the duplicate - sorry.

   See the Codex page The Loop, especially the section 'Multiple Loops in Action'.
