 * I really hope you can help me with this problem.
 * On my frontpage i have 3 different blocks, and in block 1 I would like to show
   the latest 5 posts from category 1, in block 2 I would like to show the latest
   5 posts from category 2 etc.
 * I have tried some different codes like <!–RecentPosts category=name–> but I can’t
   get it to work.
 * Really hope somebody can help.
 * Thank you.
