   I'm working with the Thesis theme for this website: mgh.unstuckdigital.com

   My problem is on the home page. The "boxes" on the far right for each category are each supposed to list the last 5 post titles as permalinks.

   Here's the code I'm using in each:

   <?php
   $cat=get_cat_ID('work');
   $catposts=get_posts('numberofposts=5&category='.$cat);
   if ($catposts) {
        foreach($catposts as $post)
        setup_postdata($post); ?></p>
   <li><a>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>">
        <?php the_title(); ?>
        </a><?php echo $cat?></li>
   <p>
   <?php } ?>

   $cat=get_cat_ID('work') is obviously replaced for each category accordingly.

   Note: I'm using the "static page" feature with the "thesis_hook_custom_template" action to create the home page.

   The odd thing is that the number of items listed matches the number of posts per category - but the permalinks point to the home page and read "home" instead of the post title.

   The numbers displayed in the lists is where I'm printing the Cat ID - to ensure the proper ID is being pulled (it is).

   I apologize if this has been covered elsewhere - I've read through a few dozen posts on similar topics but can't get to the bottom of this.

   Thanks in advance to anyone who takes the time to respond.

   -Mike
