Showing a list of posts on my static-front-page!

    I would like to show, only the_excerpt() – with a number of lets say four – on my front-page where I’ve set up my own customized template. I’ve start digging around the post template tags and such but I can’t seem to actually get the post there.

    I get a post with no content, just a heading saying my front-page name and the time and date for that.

    Anyone might know the issue?

    It sounds like you need multiple loops – one for the front-page, and another for the posts.

    See the section titled ‘Mullet Loop’ here.

    you can customize the appearance of your frontpage(usually the index.php of your theme), you can put the loop

    <?php if(have_posts());?>
<?php while(have_posts()); the_post();?>
// The Stuff... Custom HTML & PHP Code - title - time - date
<?php the_excerpt() ?>
<?php else;?>
<?php endif;?>

    i implemented it on this site
