   I'm trying to show news in a sidebar on homepage.

   (the whole thing is in pastebin.)

   As soon as I ad this... (on line 11)

   <?php if (is_page('4'))
   		{
   		get_sidebar();
   		} ?>

   ...to get the sidebar, then the page content is not showing at all. I have two posts in the sidebar and they show where the Page content should be. The sidebar if fine though, but where's the Page content?

   The first "if" on line 3 has no effect to this, I tried to remove it and same happens.

   Hope someone can help, thank you so much!

   I have two posts in the sidebar

   That's the problem: the Loop used in your sidebar over-writes the original Loop in the Page template.
   Read the Codex about the use of multiple Loops

   I just added... `<?php query_posts(); ?> ...before the loop in page.php and it works. Is that proper way to it?

   This was very nice, thank you for you help!

   Hmm... Now the page 4 content displays on every page. Didn't work. Any ideas?

   Thanks!

   Read that article again. No, you didn't do it in the proper way.
