Display only articles from a single category on the front page?
I’m working on a site that has five sections; one of these sections is a catalogue of new items for sale (one article per item). This section is currently syndicated and featured on the front page.
However, it has become clear that only certain articles in the section should be featured on the front page: just the new releases, say, rather than re-releases of old items, or items that might not be appropriate to appear on the front page. The obvious solution is to set up a category — ‘new releases’ — and just have that featured on the front page. Is there any way to go about this?

Try the <a href=“http://forum.textpattern.com/viewtopic.php?id=4526”>glx_if</a> plug in and the article_custom tag

Perfect — thank you!

You could avoid using a plug-in, and you know it makes sense, by using <code><txp:article_custom section=“sectionName” category=“categoryName” /></code>.
