    I can get the posts to show up when I only use the ic_add_posts shortcode. When I add on to that a category=’ceo-viewpoint’], it doesn’t work.

    Also, is there a way to make certain posts only show up on certain pages? My site will have a blog but also a page for columns written by the ceo (meaning I don’t want them to appear on the blog but as separate entries on the ceo viewpoint page.)

    Thanks for your help

    Hi TVHCare,

    Questions:

    1. What are your permalink setting like under Settings/Permalinks?
    2. When you look at that category under Posts/Categories, is the slug ceo-viewpoint?

    Also, is there a way to make certain posts only show up on certain pages?

    You can handle this several ways, if I understand your question correctly. If you can target by category (one that’s working for you), you could pull in only selected categories to a page.

    Then, on your blog, you can eliminate those ceo-viewpoint posts from showing up by tweaking the query. Depending on your setup, this could be as simple as using Posts in Page to pull all categories except ceo-viewpoint into a blog page.

    I hope that helps.

    Eric

    My permalink settings are Post name … I got it to work on the CEO page, the category was listed as ceo-viewpoint-2, so I just left the 2 out before.
    Is there a way to make some space between the posts it pulls on to the page? Right now I have two posts up that are squished against each other (there needs to be a break or two between them).

    I’ll work on the second part!

    Thanks so much for your help, and the plugin!

    Glad to hear you got it working.

    This is most likely a CSS issue. I’d recommend using Firebug or Chrome dev tools to see what your default post styles are (making note of classes and IDs) and then customize your posts_loop_template.php file. See the “Changing the output template” section of this page for more info:
