I tried adding the code to my static front page and checked the runphp box, but the code just shows up on the page. How do I get the code to work?
I tried static page with mini loop.
I am using the static front page plugin btw. The one where my homepage slug is simply “home”

Ahhh… sorry, I hadn’t picked up on that.
You might look at adding a mini-loop to that page’s template then (see The_Loop for more info).

to list the titles of the last three posts. You should put this in the page’s template
oh man, I’m embarrassed. Thank you for your (better) response, glrss.
