  Hi guys

  Im having a problem with my theme main post in my header…

  My website: http://www.feelinspired.co.za

  Now if you look at the Main post.. i would like it to be catgorized to only show posts from my portfolio category (3) and NOT my blog posts which are under a different category. Now my coding skills arent up to scratch with PHP so if anyone could help me adjust the code it would be great :)

  This is my home.php Where the code is located…

  <?php get_header(); ?>
  <?php if ( $paged < 1 ) {?>
  <!– Begin static –>
  <?php $my_query = new WP_Query(‘showposts=1’); while ($my_query->have_posts()) : $my_query->the_post(); $do_not_duplicate = $post->ID; ?>
  <div class=”post-<?php the_ID(); ?> static-image-wrapper”>
  <?php echo get_the_image_link(array(‘image’,’My Image’),’medium’); ?>
  <div class=”title-overlay”><h2>” rel=”bookmark” title=”Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>”><?php the_title() ?></h2>
  <?php the_excerpt(); ?>
  <p class=”postmetadata”><?php the_time(‘M d, Y’) ?> | <?php comments_popup_link(‘Have your say »’, ‘1 Comment »’, ‘% Comments »’); ?></p>
  </div>
  </div>
  <?php endwhile; ?>
  <?php }?>

  <?php $i = 0; ?>
  <?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); if( $post->ID == $do_not_duplicate ) continue; update_post_caches($posts); $i++; ?>
  <div class=”span-8 post-<?php the_ID(); ?><?php if ($i == 3) { ?> last<?php } ?>”>
  <h6 class=”archive-header”>” rel=”bookmark” title=”Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>”><?php the_title() ?></h6>
  <?php echo get_the_image_link(array(‘thumbnail’,’thumbnail-news’),’thumbnail’); ?>
  <?php the_excerpt(); ?>
  <p class=”postmetadata”><?php the_time(‘M d, Y’) ?> | <?php comments_popup_link(‘Have your say »’, ‘1 Comment »’, ‘% Comments »’); ?></p>
  </div>
  <?php if ($i == 3) { ?><div class=”archive-stack clear”></div><?php $i = 0; } ?>
  <?php endwhile; endif; ?>

  <div class=”clear”></div>

  <div class=”navigation”>
  <div><?php next_posts_link(‘« Older Entries’) ?></div>
  <div><?php previous_posts_link(‘Newer Entries »’) ?></div>
  </div>

  <?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . “/bottom.php”); ?>
  <?php get_footer(); ?>
