   Hi all,

   I want to display only the title and thumbnails only for a particular category page.

   How do i do this?

   Do I edit the category loop in content-extensions.php to say if a certain category display only title and thumbnail image.

   If you can provide code example that would be great.

   BTW I am using the themematic theme.

   Thank you,

   Jim

   hi jim,

   query_post could be a good solution

   use the query, and modify your loop to show only the title and thumbnails

   Many thanks for your reply forunner.

   As I am not a expert php dev could you provide an example of code?

   eg: If cat id8, return title and thumbnail only.

   This goes into the category loop.

   Many thanks!

   quote from the codex :
   

   <?php
   
   //The Query
   query_posts('cat=8');
   
   //The Loop
   if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post();
    the_title();
    the_post_thumbnail();   // I'm not sure for this one, try to look into the codex
   endwhile; else:
    ..
   endif;
   
   //Reset Query
   wp_reset_query();
   
   ?>

   hope this will work for you, but I don't know, I'm a beginner too

   thanks forunner. I ended up using the ref here:

   http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/the_post_thumbnail
   

   <div id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>" class="<?php thematic_post_class(); ?>">
   				<div class="entry-content">
   				<?php the_post_thumbnail('thumbnail'); ?>
    				</div>

   One question, wouldnt this bring up posts one below another?

   Since its just titles and its respective thumbnails, I want it to appear in two columns. Any idea how I can get that?
