    I’m new so don’t know too much & shy to show my page 🙂

    I have a page template with the following code that makes the page look like there are 3 columns.

    <?php get_header(); ?>

    <div id=slideshow>
    <?php echo do_shortcode(‘[pe_estro_slider id=”1″]’); ?>
    </div>

    <div id=home_box_1>
    <h2>News</h2>

    </div>

    <div id=home_box_2></div>
    <div id=home_box_3></div>
    <div style=’clear:both;’></div>
    <?php get_footer(); ?>

    I want to start putting content in the 3 columns but not sure how to do this?
    In my dashboard, i click add page, write some stuff and it doesn’t appear. Any advice on what to look for? Thanks in advance!

    If it helps to add to the above, ‘NEWS’ would be one column

    another box column 2
    another box column 3

    I want NEWS to be a page I can update and edit with content.
    I want box 2 to be a page I can update and edit with content
    etc.

    I’ve narrowed it down to some code that pulls out a POST but i can’t find a way to change WHAT post to display

    <div id=home_box_1>
    <h2>test</h2>
  	<?php query_posts(array('posts_per_page'=>1)); if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
  		<div <?php post_class() ?> id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
  			<h2><a>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
  			<?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/inc/meta.php' ); ?>
  			<div class="entry">
  				<?php the_content(); ?>
  			</div>
  			<a>">> Read more</a>
  		</div>
