   Hello!! I am working on my arthemia based theme and currently am using the Featured Content Gallery Plugin for a featured section on my website: http://www.bespokeordie.com.

   Instead I would like to show the last post published up there. Nothing complicated. I just want the Featured section to show what I just published in the same format as the rest of the body below the Category Navigation Bar.

   I don't want to exclude Headline or Featured Categories, I just want the first post to show up up top and the rest to show up where they are in the body of the site.

   Here is my index.php code:
   

   <?php get_header(); ?>
   
   	<?php if(!is_paged()) { ?>
   	<style type="text/css">
   <!--
   .style1 {
   	font-weight: bold;
   	font-size: medium;
   }
   -->
       </style>
   
   	<div id="top" class="clearfloat">
   	  <div id="headline">
   	  <div class="title">featured &amp;raquo</div>
   		<?php include (ABSPATH . '/wp-content/plugins/featured-content-gallery/gallery.php'); ?>
   	  </div>
   
   **MISC CODE REMOVED**	
   
   	<div id="middle" class="clearfloat">
   	<?php $display_categories = array(45,4,7,13,1); $i = 1;
   	foreach ($display_categories as $category) { ?>
   
   	<div id="cat-<?php echo $i; ?>" class="category">
   		<?php query_posts("showposts=1&amp;cat=$category")?>
   		<span class="cat_title"><a href="<?php echo get_category_link($category);?>"><?php single_cat_title(); ?></a></span>
   	</div>
   
   	<?php $i++; ?>
       	<?php } ?>
   
   	</div>
   
   	<?php } ?>
   
   	<div id="bottom" class="clearfloat">
   
   	<div id="front-list">	
   
   <?php
         $page = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
         query_posts("cat=-5,-6&amp;paged=$page&amp;posts_per_page=5"); ?>
   <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>		
   
   	<div class="clearfloat">
   	<div class="title"><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark">
   	  <?php the_title(); ?>
   	</a></div>
   	<div id="metawrap">
   	<h3 class="cat_title"><?php the_category(' | '); ?> &amp;raquo</h3>
   	<div class="meta">[<?php the_time('j M Y') ?> | <?php comments_popup_link('No Comment', 'One Comment', '% Comments');?> | <?php if(function_exists('the_views')) { the_views(); } ?>]</div>
   	</div>
   	<div class="spoiler">
   	<?php	$values = get_post_custom_values("Image");
   	if (isset($values[0])) { ?>
         <a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title(); ?>">
   	<img src="<?php echo bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/scripts/timthumb.php?src=<?php echo get_option('home'); ?>/<?php
   $values = get_post_custom_values("Image"); echo $values[0]; ?>&amp;w=300&amp;h=150&amp;zc=1&amp;q=100"
   alt="<?php the_title(); ?>" class="left" width="300px" height="150px"  /></a>
         <?php } ?>
   
   	<?php excerpt('40'); ?>
   	</div>
   	</div>
   
         <?php endwhile; ?>
   
   	<div class="navigation">
   		<?php if(function_exists('wp_pagenavi')) { wp_pagenavi(); }
   			else { ?>
   
   			<div class="right"><?php next_posts_link('Next Page &raquo;') ?></div>
   			<div class="left"><?php previous_posts_link('&laquo; Previous Page') ?></div>
   			<?php } ?>
   
   	</div>
   	</div>
   
   	<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
   
   	</div>	
   
   <?php get_footer(); ?>

   Thank y9ou so much for your time and your help.

   So if no one can help, can someone tell me why? Or a good research site to figure it out on my own. What little I know about php I took from trial and error.
