 * Hi,
 * I have Admired Theme setup for my blog at [Allzhere](http://allzhere.in).
 * I list my posts on the first page of my blog.
    I have installed the Recent Posts
   Plugin and activated the same. However, the plugin does not appear on the homepage.
 * Can you please suggest for resolving this.

 * Hi Neha,
 * Thanks for your response.
    I am not aware of the technical aspects here and hence
   put forward the following queries before i proceed further:
 * 1. Where/which file to place “<?php if (function_exists(‘rps_show’)) echo rps_show();?
   >”.
 * 2. Where do i add shortcode ? ‘[rps]’ or ‘[rps category_ids=”2,3″ total_posts
   =”2″ post_include_ids=”1″ post_exclude_ids=”2″]’.
 * 3. In my widgets, the only place i can place this plugin is side bar.
    I want
   it on top my home page which lists all posts.

 * 1. Php code is there to place in php files like header.php, index.php
    2. Shortcode
   to place in post or pages. I would suggest to place it in php file using 1st 
   method.

 * Neha,
 * Thanks a lot…
    I was able to get the plugin loaded on Development Server…
 * Now, i am trying to configure some options:
    1. Change the background color which
   is appearing “white” as of now. Is there some setting for this ??
 * 2. Change the Posts Title Color & Posts Title Background Color : not working 
   from settings. Added the following value “#344aef”; but didn’t work.
 * Please suggest.
    Thanks again.Appreciate it.
