  I’m wondering how to code the css and php to show my latest two post’s titles and their featured images in a two column setup horizontally. This is what I have currently, but it shows the same image for each post. Wondering how to specify the featured image to match the post. Thanks!

  <a href='’ rel=’bookmark’ title=’Permanent Link to ‘>

  <?php

  the_post_thumbnail();
  echo ‘

  Fixed it! I was using unnecessarily complex code, just had to throw the_post_thumbnail in the loop for each column.
