ah, yes.. i am thinking of wanting this feature too.

A possible answer - because it will not be inplemented in the very near future.

You can create a blog which you don't show on you main page.
Like the blogrolling feauture, you show only 1 post. and you put that on the top of your page.

On my site you can see that I did that with a lot of articles.
In the sidebars I have a lot of 'default' articles, everyone in a different catagory.
They change every week, because every week I put a new article in (I do that in advance because I put the posts in, in the future.

If it is something like that that you want, look in the code of my page or page me... I'll post the right code..

Hi Topanga,

I did what you said here to display one post always on top. Everything works fine except when click read more of the posts on the main blog, the more contents also displays.

Please see the page here:
http://uigarden.net/magazine/english.php
and click one of the 'read it' link under any posts except the top one to see the result displayed.

Could you please let me know how to display only the short discription of the post of the link blog, or even not disply it? Is it possible?

Many thanks!!

Sorry, I've just realized this post is in the Feature reguest section. Maybe it's not good to post my question here. Apolagize first, but still need help on this! Please!!

yuyu,
I don't understand exactly want you want.

If people click on 'read more' the 'more' text is shown... * offcourse*

I do this :

<?php $saved_blog = $blog; $blog = 3; 	?>
          <?php
		  // You can restrict to specific categories by listing them in the two params below: '', array()
		  // '', array(9,15) will restrict to cats 9 and 15
		  // '9,15', array() will restrict to cats 9,15 and all their subcats
		  $BlogBList = new ItemList( $blog,  $show_statuses, '', $m, $w, '', array(5), $author, $order, $orderby, $posts, '', '', '', '', '', '', '', '1', 'posts', $timestamp_min, $timestamp_max );
		  while( $Item = $BlogBList->get_item() ) { ?>
		  <?php permalink_anchor(); ?>
          <a href="<?php permalink_link() ?>" title="Permanent link to full entry"><?php $Item->title(); ?></a>
				<?php $Item->content('#',false,'','','','','htmlbody',10); ?>
		  <?php } $blog = $saved_blog; ?>

I put 1 article from blog 3 with only the title and the short content.
If you click on 'read more' the article opens in his own page (I work with stub files) completely.

Yes, the thing is when click read more of article A, the more contents of article B also shows.

Please see my site: http://uigarden.net/magazine/english.php

For example, if you click "read it" under the article of "Design as Communication", you'll see the more contents of "editor's comentary" also shows.

Please click it, you'll see what I mean!

Many thanks!
