Is it possible to put wordpress codes in pages? And other questions.

    New to wordpress, but used movabletype for several years.

    Is it possible for me to create a page with codes to extract and display the excerpts of selected posts? I haven’t looked at the inner workings of wordpress, so if it is possible where I should start to do something like this? I’ve looked in the Loop, but it doesn’t seem to contain the code I need. Is there a handy little piece somewhere I can just use, or do I have to write that myself?

    Also, is there something that allows me to pull out all posts from a selected month and category (eg. Jan 2007 & Tech News) and display a bulleted list of articles (with links of course)?

    I’m also looking for something (a plugin, hopefully) that will allow me more control over picture/media uploads, something that separates them into media types and month/year, for example. The default picture upload screen seems minimalistic and once I have a lot of pictures it seems I’ll have some trouble selecting ones I want.

    Thanks in advance.

    1. It depends what those posts has in common?
    If they are just arbitrarily selected posts… I am afraid you have to pull the one by one.

    2. The question has been asked several times (=category AND monthly archives combined); I don’t remember any solution. You may want to search)

    3. See the plugins list for media: http://codex.wordpress.org/Plugins

    <ul>
    <?php
    $my_query = new WP_Query('category_name=Tech News&monthnum=1&year=2007');
    while ($my_query->have_posts()) {
    $my_query->the_post();
    echo '<li><a href="';
    the_permalink();
    echo '">';
    the_title();
    echo '</a></li>';
    }
    ?>
    </ul>
