   Hi All.

   Firstly apologies if this comes across as a newb question. I'm new to using WP and these forums have already helped me a LOT so thank you all!

   My question/problem is this; i have is a newly created page, within that page i have running the 'Show Post Shortcode' plugin by Niraj Shah.

   This does what i need it to, but what i need above that is a preview of my latest post that includes a small preview of the review/post and also the image within that post.

   absolutely no idea if this can be done, but i thought i would throw it out to the experts.

   Any help would be great!

   TIA.
   Mark

   <?php
   $latest_post = new WP_Query('showposts=1');
   while($latest_post->have_posts()); $latest_post->the_post();?>
    <h2><a href="<?php the_permalink();?>"><?php the_title() ?></a></h2>
    <div class="entry"><?php the_excerpt() ?></div>
   <?php endwhile; ?>
