   I am using a a little menu for the lasted post on my single pages. I just want to have the first excluded from this list, if the single page displays the lasted post.

   I am currently doing this by hand:
   

   <?php
   global $post;
   if (is_single('239')) {
   $posts = get_posts('numberposts=4&offset=1');
   } else {
   $posts = get_posts('numberposts=4&offset=0');
   };
   foreach($posts as $post) :
   setup_postdata($post);
   ?>

   Is there any way like
   is_single(lastest_post)

   ???

   I'm not 100% sure of what you're trying to do, but it seems like you could do this with the $do_not_duplicate technique offered in this explanation of The Loop.

   You'd essentially modify the original loop on single.php to include $do_not_duplicate = post->ID; and then make your next loop excludes $do_not_duplicate. I don't feel like writing out and testing the thing, but it seems like it would do what you want.

   This might help:

   <?php
         $i=0; // Initialize to Zero;
         if (have_posts()) :
           while (have_posts()) : the_post();
               if ($i==0) {$recentpostid = $post->ID; $i=$i+1;}
           endwhile;
         endif;
         //get only the latest post
         $posts = query_posts( 'p='.$recentpostid."'");
   ?>
   <?php echo $recentpostid ;?>

   (from another thread)

   I'm trying something similar. I have a list of posts, and one displayed. Without reloading the page, I want to be able to click the next post title, and have it displayed. So far so good with an iframe. However, I can't get my single.php that's my iframe to load initially with the latest post. Let me know if you figured this out.

   Best, seej
