   Hi there,

   I want to know how to display a certain number of latest posts upon a page.
   For example, I have my usual News page that displays all my posts but I also want to display around 5 of my latest posts on my static Front Page so my visitors can see the top 5 latest articles without having to click through my website.

   I don't however want to get rid of my static Front Page as I want it to display a welcoming paragraph and then the top 5 posts underneath.

   Is there anyway to do this without having to remove my static front page or redirecting it to the news page?

   Thanks
   Joe.

   Did you try this:

   It worked form me in a template and I displayed them in an ordered list.

   Or, in my case, for a static homepage effect, I made my original "Welcome" post a sticky for the front page. And all the new posts appear under it.

   You actually can do that using short codes. See this site.
