    The website: http://www.brken.com

    If you look on the homepage you will see a side bar box called “Don’t Miss”. This is a text widget which I am updating manually, what I would like to do is automate it a little so it shows says 5 of the latest don’t miss and then link to a page that may show a little more information or just the same information but all posts for that section.

    I thought I might be able to create a category and then show it on that side, but that didnt work. Anyone got any ideas? Probably a plugin that may do it but not sure what to search for.

    Have you had a look at the Recent Posts widget in Appearance/Widgets.

    Hi,

    Yes I have the recent posts section, but that just shows the title of the post which is fine.

    As an idea what im looking to do is something like on this website: http://www.futuremovies.co.uk/

    See the features section. I see that is just a recent posts link, but I dont want to show the latest but just specific posts from a certain category.

    You could use a custom query to display these posts or try looking foe a suitable plugin.
