 * Hi,
 * I´m building my blog and I have on mind a particular structure that i have never
   seen before. I want to have in my homepage a fixed part, like an “about” and 
   then, bellow, the posts (or news, like called)
 * What i could do, is to display this **about** page at the top of my blog. For
   doing this I´ve wrote a **page** (id #4) and i add this linke to the index.php
 * _<?php if (is\_home()) { query\_posts(“page\_id=4”); } ?>_
 * before the _ <?php if (have\_posts() _…
 * the problem is that i want the posts below this fixed part, but i can´t make 
   it.
 * does anybody know how to do this ?
 * if you want to see what i`ve done till now> [http://www.wikichaves.com/blog](http://www.wikichaves.com/blog)(
   in spanish)or here a [google traslated](http://google.com/translate?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.wikichaves.com&langpair=es%7Cen&hl=en&ie=UTF8)
 * you can see the posts titles only in the right bar (i want them below also)
 * thanks
    Francisco

 * You need to make a new loop after your first loop. I suppose you should add the
   line:
 *     ```
       wp_reset_query();
       ```
   
 * After the first loop.
 * If you just want post titles, then use `wp_get_archives()` instead of the second
   loop.

 * what about using the Sticky Plugin to have one post always stay at the top ?

 * If `wp_reset_query()` doesn’t work, then just make a new query.
 * I run multiple loops in many of my themes. Creating a new loop definitely works.
 * So, you would have:
 *     ```
       query_posts()
       Loop 1
       query_posts()
       Loop 2
       ```
   
 * Using a plugin for this is pretty much pointless unless you really don’t want
   to touch code.
