    I’m trying to figure out WordPress theme development and can’t quite figure out how to search for what I’m looking for.

    On my home page I have a featured post area. This simply highlights the most recent post. Nothing too fancy there.

    In a different section below that area, I have a “Recent Articles” area. I want to fill that in with all the articles following the first post.

    On a side note: if I were to do something fancy with the Featured Post area like make a Featured Post category, would there be a way to exclude just the post in the featured area but have all other featured posts show up below in the Recent Articles area?

    The easiest way to feature a post would be to make it a sticky post, and then style the sticky post how you’d like it to look.

    The hard way would be to use multiple loops. The first loop snags the featured post, and the second loop snags the rest. It sounds like you may want a “mullet loop”…

    Cool. Thanks. I think I can probably figure it all out from the info given. Thank you very much.
