  Hi,

  I’m trying to make changes to my blog blog.CompStak.com

  We are using the Gaalao template.

  I wanted the home page to only show posts from the News category. The category ID number is 1.
  I am not a software developer, so I was trying to follow some instructions from the WP forums. I understand that using this code:

  <?php query_posts ($query_string . ‘&cat=1’); ?>

  I can accomplish the task. So I tries to enter the code before the loop in index.php, but the file is locked.

  What’s the best way to accomplish this?

  Thanks,

  Danny

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there,
  That is NOT is not a free hosted WordPress.com blog. We provide support only for free hosted WordPress.COM blogs and you are posting to the wrong support forum.

  WordPress.com and WordPress.org have different log-ins and run different versions of themes with same names. If you don’t have a username account at WordPress.ORG click http://wordpress.org/support/ and register one on the top right hand corner of the page that opens, so you can post to the support forums there and receive advice from WordPress.ORG bloggers.
