Thanks, esmi. I did try all of your suggestions previously. rfair’s suggestion hit on the problem. Looks to be fixed now. Thanks so much.

Now all I need to do is solve my sidebar style issues… 🙂

I can’t edit or drag my widgets. They’re frozen as is (I can’t even see the settings only that they are there).

The boss changed her mind, so now the goal is to leave the home page as is and show the two most recent posts displaying in full on the blog page. I created a separate page template (bloghome.php) and a new page called ‘blog’ with no content and assigned that as the “posts page” in the admin dashboard. Two problems:

1. It’s not showing only 2 posts though I’ve put in a query_posts tag
2. I’m not sure if there’s a way to show complete posts since the (current) posts contain ‘more’ tags. (This was done for the sake of the category pages.)

This is the relevant part of the code of the bloghome.php template:

<?php
/*
Template Name: Bloghome
*/
?>
<?php get_header();
  ?>

<div class="narrowcolumn">

	<?php include(TEMPLATEPATH . '/top-menu.php'); ?>

<?php query_posts('showposts=2'); ?>
	<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>

		while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

	<div class="post" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">

		<h2><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="<?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
		<div class="entry">

			<?php the_content(); ?>
			<?php link_pages('<p><strong>Pages:</strong> ', '</p>', 'number'); ?>

			<?php the_category(', ') ?> <?php edit_post_link('Edit', '<p>', '</p>'); ?>

			<!--
			<?php trackback_rdf(); ?>
			-->

			<div class="comments-template">
				<?php comments_template(); ?>
			</div>

		</div>
	</div>

	<?php endwhile; ?>

What am I doing wrong?

Excellent!!! It all works now. Thanks again so much.

Thanks. That worked. The widget just didn’t do what I wanted it to. Ah well, back to the drawing board.
