Its kinda working but for some reason its not getting the 1st date?
```
<div id="latest-blog-entries">
      <h2>Latest Entries From The SEO Blog</h2>
      <?php query_posts('category_name=blog&showposts=2'); ?>
      <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
      <h3><?php the_title(); ?></h3>
      <h4>Posted on <?php the_date(); ?></h4>
      <?php the_excerpt(); ?>
      <?php endwhile; ?>
    </div>
```

Hi kwbridge

Thanks very much, just testing it now. Did you get my email sent to your gmail 😉

Seems to be working once content gets added to the categories.

Thanks for all your help.

Thanks kwbridge

So far I have…
```
$categories = get_categories();
foreach ($categories as $cat) {
 echo "<li><a href=\"#\">".$cat->cat_name."</a><br /><span class=\"small-text\">".$cat->category_description."</span></li>";
}
```
How do I get all categories even if they have no posts?

Thanks

Alan

OK so the following lists out the categories:

<?php wp_list_categories(”); ?>

I wan to be able to list out te category names and the description as per my previous post.

Thanks

Alan
