 * Okay, I’m working on a plugin that will allow me to select from the admin side
   a group of posts that will be displayed on the homepage. Currently I have it 
   set up like this.
 * new table called wp_homepage
 * columns “item_id”, and “item_order”
 * 6 rows.
 * I want to be able to create a filter that will make sure that the only posts 
   that show up on the homepage are ones that have their ID in the “item_id” column
   of the new table, and then they will appear according to the order of “item_order”.
 * I have been looking at the “showfrontpage” plugin and it seems VERY close to 
   what I need to accomplish. It basically checks to see if there is a customfield
   for the post ID set to false and then doesn’t display that post. I want to take
   this a step further and allow control of the homepage from one single admin page
   so you can reorder and remove posts from the homepage.
 * I just can’t seem to get there yet. I don’t know if I’ve explained this correctly.
 * Hopefully someone out there can point me in the right direction.
