    Hi,

    I would like to have certain posts on one page and others on another.

    Is there a way to do this or a simple way to change some of the posts to pages so the menu bar shows them in a seperate section?

    Here is a link to the site: http://footballbootsreview.com

    I would like the page Featured Football Boots to show football boot posts as it does now and the page Football World to show football topic posts. At the moment I have to write all of the info on one page one after another. The user can’t select which topic to read without scrolling thorugh.

    Thanks

    This is how you should do this:

    Create tow new categories something like this: “Football Boots” and “Football topics”

    Then mark all the football boots related posts as “Football Boots” and football posts related posts as “Football topics”

    Then go to Appearance> Menus and add those 2 categories to your menu.

    Thanks for your quick reply.

    I’ve managed to set it up how I want but the only issue is that the football topics posts are showing up on my “Featured Football Boots Page” http://footballbootsreview.com/featured-football-boots/

    is there a way to stop them automatically being loaded as latest posts?

    the only other issue I am getting is when I enter my twitter name into the amphion twitter feeds menu, I try to save it with 5 tweets showing but it doesnt save no matter how many times I re-enter the number.

    Thanks

    Try this plugin: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/front-page-excluded-categories/

    For the twitter problem, open up twitter_widget.php from widgets folder of the AMphionPro folder and open it up with notepad and replace all the code with the code you find in this link:

    Hi, the link is working now.

    One question regarding the plugin, I can’t see a way of selecting which posts to exclude from the “featured football boots page” http://footballbootsreview.com/featured-football-boots/

    Regards

    Hi again,

    Something went wrong when I tried to paste the code for the twitter widget.

    I’ve tried to paste the original code back but it won’t save.

    My whole site is down and I get this msg:

    Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘}’ in /home/bodster2/public_html/wp-content/themes/AmphionPro/widgets/twitter_widget.php on line 117

    Please can you help

    Thanks
