If you’re using 2.1, the staic front page can be done from
admin -> Options -> Reading
It’s fairly self explanatory.
You can have as many categories as you want.
I must be thick cos I cant work it out 🙁
Yes, you can have several categories.
You should even be able to place posts from different categories to different pages, if you create page templates, copy/paste “the loop” from the codex to the template files, and add category selection in the code/templates. Not sure, though.
I want to basically have a static homepage and then a category for each section of my site (for diff projects)
1) you need to log in as admin
2) you need to open “option” and then “reading”
3) make the selections
4) submit
OK – create a “Page” that you want to use as your staic front. After creation, go to the admin section and assign that page to be static front.
Create as many cats as you want and create posts to assign to whatever cat.
