To clarify, no e-commerce is needed. I will just be linking so that products can be purchased elsehwere. I just need to be able to display product images.

Can I create a custom field where I assign an image to each post, then bring up that image on a static main page, or and a customized category page?

Thanks!

Good catch, I must have pasted incorrectly!

I have edited for it to read:

<?php $my_query = new WP_Query('category_name=suns&showposts=1');
  while ($my_query->have_posts()) : $my_query->the_post();
  $do_not_duplicate = $post->ID;?>
    <li><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></li>
  <?php endwhile; ?>
    <!-- Do other stuff... -->
  <?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post();
  if( $post->ID == $do_not_duplicate ) continue; update_post_caches($posts); ?>
   <li><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></li>
  <?php endwhile; endif; ?>

I have put this up at http://www.azfans.com/blogs/suns2/

For some reason the rest of the posts beyond the first aren’t showing up! Also, the title of the page (Suns2) is showing up below the first item!

So i managed to find out that this requires multiple loops. I copied the code exactly from http://codex.wordpress.org/The_Loop but still it’s not showing up. I get a blank page at http://www.azfans.com/blogs/suns

<?php $my_query = new WP_Query('category_name=Suns&showposts=1');
  while ($my_query->have_posts()) : $my_query->the_post();
  $do_not_duplicate = $post->ID; ?>
    <li><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></li>
 <?php endforeach; ?>
 </ul>
  <?php endwhile; ?>

    <?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post();
  if( $post->ID == $do_not_duplicate ) continue; update_post_caches($posts); ?>
    <li><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></li>
 <?php endforeach; ?>
 </ul>
  <?php endwhile; endif; ?>

Also, how would I change the second loop to only pull from the Suns or 3 category?

Help is greatly appreciated! Thank you!

Thanks mercime. I did look at that. I will be customizing my category templates as well, however, I want to keep their index.php structure in tack.

The page I want to create will NOT be a substitute for the category pages. I still want to have the category pages, but want to create a template where i can specify the latest number of x posts from x category.

Where the first post has most information, and the following x posts show simply the date, title, and link. Can you help?

Thanks,

Jon
