1. Not really. It is the Loop that displays the posts.
2. I have never seen anything like that in WP. (which doesn’t mean it is impossible)

Hi,
Let me tell you what i am trying to achieve, it might make more sense that way. I am trying to separate the posts on my blog into a sub category which only gets displayed in the sidebar. Specifically this subcategory will only display pictures and links, but with a description for the feed. I was using the Blogroll, but i then discovered you can’t subscribe to the blogroll as an RSS feed, so i am trying to think up alternatives.
I didn’t want to use the loop because i thought it would be a bit of an overhead to select all the posts only to show very little of them.
Any help or advice as to how i achieve this would be great.
Thanks
Daniel
I am trying to separate the posts on my blog into a sub category which only gets displayed in the sidebar.
That part is easy: it can be a category or subcategory that is excluded from the main page (use a plugin) and then display that one category only by using a miniloop in your sidebar.
The_Loop
Template_Tags/query_posts
Everybody does it in that way.
With the Template_Tags you can define what is and what is not displayed.
I don’t know how to make a “description for the feed” but hopefully you do 🙂
