your original code worked for me:
$postID = 2;
$thePost = get_post($postID);
echo $thePost->post_content;
but instead of calling up post 2, it called up page 2. i give my posts slug names; is there a way to call up by post name instead of postID?
@teorourke:
how did you fix the color boxes? (orange rollover boxes on sidebar links, specifically for Pages.)
Anton:
on the sunrise theme, i can’t find the code controlling the page-item orange rollover boxes in the sidebar. how do i change the values for the javascript class “page_item”?
please advise. thanks.
UPDATE: never mind! i just found the css code in the CSS tab under Customize Theme. that was too easy. 😛
the page seems to be working alright. is your database still giving you trouble?
