 * I have downloaded a little plugin to show the latest post but i don’t know where
   i should paste this code? I would like it to appear in my sidebar but I’ve tried
   several solutions but nothing helps
 * HOW TO USE
    Put this function: <? php cypher_latestposts(); ?> */ function cypher_latestposts(
   $before=”, $after='<br>’) { global $wpdb; $output = ”; $max_posts = 5; //Maximum
   posts to be displayed
 * plugin:
    [http://wp-plugins.net/index.php?PHPSESSID=f650d1a597a7d680acc908004deaebe6&filter=latest+posts](http://wp-plugins.net/index.php?PHPSESSID=f650d1a597a7d680acc908004deaebe6&filter=latest+posts)
 * Download URL: [http://cypherhackz.liquidnyquiz.com/downloads/cypher_latest-posts.zip](http://cypherhackz.liquidnyquiz.com/downloads/cypher_latest-posts.zip)
 * Description: Returns a list of the latest posts. You can set how many posts to
   be displayed.
    and my blog page is: [http://www.anoop.be/wordpress](http://www.anoop.be/wordpress)
 * Thanks for the help!

 * sketch: after you activate the plugin, you should add the following to your sidebar,
   where you want the output to occur:
 * `<? php cypher_latestposts(); ?>`
 * What problems were you experiencing?
