My Q is the same as "reallylost's" June 02:

"is it possible to display posts (excerpts and image with link to full page) from category A in the left sidebar, posts from category B in the center, and posts from category C on the right sidebar?"

We have 3 prolific editors who want to update 3 separate columns on the front page, linking to their separate Category pages for the full stories.

Atahualpa looks like the best possible theme for that, but i'zat possible?

Thank You.

This might work for you: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/sideposts/, at least for the left and right sidebars.

I'm drawing a blank on how you'd restrict the center column to just one category, but I'm sure there's a way.

Thanks everso.... will try it out.
