Latest posts in a feature box?

[bennyo 1]

Is it possible to get the latest posts in a feature box in iBlogPro? I want it higher than the widget row below... Regards, Benny

It might be possible. What look are you trying to achieve? From a design standpoint, if you try to add a certain number of posts to just one box, the box will be extremely narrow.

I want it exactly as it is in a widget box below. With a title and the 5 or 10 latest posts... But I want it in a feature box instead of a widget box. Because and want it higher on the side, so the visitors don??t miss it.

Put whatever you want to appear in the Excerpts box, located directly below the post editor box. You may have to go up to 'screen options' at the top of the page to enable the Excerpts box.

There's no real easy way, but its possible. This is one way that comes to mind, maybe there are better ways as well: You need to find a plugin that will allow you to insert php code into a wordpress post, something like php-exec. Then you need to look in the Wordpress Codex and learn about the wp_query() function to make your post list: http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/WP_Query
