How [to include latest blog/forum posts]? by lordy on 11-18-2005 at 01:03 AM

As you will see on the front page of my website (http://www.teaspoondiner.net/) i have a latest blog posts and a website news thing. How can i make it so the Website new part shows all the posts in the 'website news' part of the forum? if that makes sense...

also how do i get the latest blog posts bit to do that same thing? at the moment im editing the index page every time i add a new blog post, but i towuld be easier for it to do it automatically. if anyone knows how that would be awesome :D

You can do that with various WordPress plugins, Latest Posts for example can do it.

Loads of more plugins are in the WordPress plugin database

plugins work fine if i want the list to be displayed within wordpress, however the list is outside wordpress. once i get back from school ill try and write my own script... we'll see how that goes
