# Multiple Post Sections?

 * Some time ago I installed the newsleak theme for referencing theme layout.
    The
   theme had two sections “post_holder” and “posts_bellow”
 * In the post_holder section, the newest post was displayed and in the posts_bellow
   section, all remaining posts were displayed for up to the amount selected in “
   reading”.
 * How would I create a third or even fourth section?
 * To this day I have evolved my themes around the original newsleak theme. I’ve
   completely erased and changed the functions by now and my entire code is nothing
   like the original but I still have the original containing php to represent a
   top post and all remaining posts which came with the original theme.
 * The setup is:
 *     ```
       <?php if (have_posts()) : ?><?php $count = 0; ?><?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
       <?php $count++; ?><?php if ($count == 1) : ?>
   
       <div class='top-post'></div>
   
       <?php else : ?>
   
       <div class='remaining-posts'></div>
   
       <?php endif; ?>
       <?php endwhile; ?>
   
       <!-- paginate -->
   
       <?php else : ?>
       <div id="notfound"></div>
       <?php endif; ?>
       ```
   
 * I haven’t had much time to dabble into php until recently, but it’s not enough
   to grasp the concept I am inquiring about just yet.
 * Any idea what I could do to add alternate sections?
 * I’m really looking to keep the top and most recent post.
    Maybe have a second
   section where I use a much smaller thumbnail size. Then have my third section
   which lists all remaining images in another size.

 * Otherwise, is there a way to show posts on my index page specifically from a 
   category of choice?
