   Hi there,

   I am in the middle of creating a new WordPress theme for my new project and I am not sure how to add 3 loops into the index.php.

   Here is how it will be...

   Home Page:
   Loop 1
   - Featured post, 1 Post (from Featured Category only)

   Loop 2
   - Latest Posts, 4 Posts (All remaining posts except Featured and Resources cat)

   Loop 3
   - Latest Resources, 4 Posts (from Resources Category only)

   I hope this makes sense, I don't want any duplicates going into each.

   If someone can help me would be much appreciated.

   Many thanks.

   George

   I've looked through that and it seems it is for a 2 loop script. I'm not too clued up on PHP so wouldn't know where to start on a 3 loop? lol

   Sorry

   Can anyone help or point me in the right direction of incorporating a 3 loop system on my wordpress install?

   Thanks.#

   you simply add a third loop after the two others.

   example: http://wordpress.pastebin.com/kSWUbKSt

   (totally untested, no formatting)
