This might be a stupid question, but how do you go about creating a new page template while using the Atahualpa theme? I want to create a page that uses a modified version of The Loop, to display posts from only certain categories, but have no idea how to do this, with Atuhualpa!

Your advice is greatly appreciated

make a copy of index.php as whatever.php, at the very top of whatever.php put

<?php
/*
Template Name: My page template
*/
?>

Remove code you don't need, add additional custom code, and upload it to the Atahualpa root directory. Go edit or create a new page and the new page template will be listed as "My page template" in a drop down select menu at the top right

Ok, thanks for this....I still can't find a solution for what I'm trying to do. Basically, on one of the pages of my site, I would like to display all posts from a certain category, and it's child categories. How do I do this?

Is there anyone out there that might be able to help me with this request...it's holding me back from launching my site

Anyone?

Are you looking for a list of the posts, or the posts themself? and are you looking for it on a static page? you could try this: http://forum.bytesforall.com/showthr...light=page2cat
