    Hey all,

    I am wondering what the PHP code is to show a list of the most recent posts. I want just blurbs of recent posts stacked. I feel like I was working with something similar but after messing around with it so much I kind of lost and forgot about it. I see this done often, it’s quite nice. Could anyone help me with this?

    hi

    you can start here

    <h3>Recent Articles</h3>
    <ul>
    <?php
        $recentPosts = new WP_Query();
        $recentPosts->query('showposts=5');
    ?>
    <?php while ($recentPosts->have_posts()) : $recentPosts->the_post(); ?>
        <li><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark"><?php the_title(); ?></a><br /><?php the_excerpt() ?></li>
    <?php endwhile; ?>
    </ul>
