Post to specific categories only?

    My homepage displays the latest posts, is there any way to have the posts from specific catergories only show up on the page. For instance, I have product review categories that I want to show up on the homepage, but I also have articles that I don't want to show up on the homepage.

    Thanks

    You can achieve this by creating a static page and pointing it to be the home page.

    Then use 'list category posts' to specify the category posts which you want to display on the home page and you are done.

    If you get any doubts let us know.

    using the template system if you have a file "home.php" then this will be the templkate for the home page and then using wp hooks just linking the appropriate categories
