I'm wondering how to get latest posts by tag? I do see the instructions, but I can't seem to get it right.
The following would output the latest posts ordered by title:
<?php
$postslist = get_posts('numberposts=10&order=ASC&orderby=title');
foreach ($postslist as $post) :
setup_postdata($post);
?>
<div>
<?php the_date(); ?>
<br />
<?php the_title(); ?>
<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
</div>
<?php endforeach; ?>
But how can I display the latest posts by tag? Thanks for the help WordPress pros!

$orderby
(string) (optional) Sort posts by one of various values (separated by space), including:
* 'author' - Sort by the numeric author IDs.
* 'category' - Sort by the numeric category IDs.
* 'content' - Sort by content.
* 'date' - Sort by creation date.
* 'ID' - Sort by numeric post ID.
* 'menu_order' - Sort by the menu order. Only useful with pages.
* 'mime_type' - Sort by MIME type. Only useful with attachments.
* 'modified' - Sort by last modified date.
* 'name' - Sort by stub.
* 'parent' - Sort by parent ID.
* 'password' - Sort by password.
* 'rand' - Randomly sort results.
* 'status' - Sort by status.
* 'title' - Sort by title.
* 'type' - Sort by type
Tags is not in the list, so you can't order by tags with this function.

hehe, no I'm trying to display the latest posts by tag. Let us say I do a page about Angelina Jolie, I'd like to display the excerpts of of the last 10 posts that have the tag angelina?
You should be able to add &tag=angelina and, according to the codex, that should do the trick =)

Perfect illutic, I could get the output i wanted. I set it up on a page, now it shows the excerpt of the posts perfectly. But it gets the permalink, the image and the title of the page it's on. How can I get these of the actual posts I called?
<div class="newspagetop">
<?php
$postslist = get_posts('numberposts=5&orderby=date&tag=heresthetag');
foreach ($postslist as $post) :
setup_postdata($post);
?>
<?php $the_image = get_image(); ?>
<div class="newspage" <?php if($the_image != "") { ?> style="min-height:5.00em;" <?php } ?>>
<?php if($the_image != "") {?>
<div class="newspage-img"><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>"><?php echo $the_image; ?></a>
</div>
<div class="newspage-content"><?php } else {?><div class="newspage-content" style="padding-left:0;"><?php }?>
<h3 id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>"><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Continue reading <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h3>
<div class="entry">
<?php the_excerpt() ?>
<p><span class="read_more"><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>">Read more...</a></span> <span class="feedback"><?php comments_popup_link('0 Comments', '1 Comment', '% Comments'); ?></span></p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</div>
Thanks for the input!
