wordpress - display titles and content

Hi,

I am currently using this code to display the latest 10 posts on my homepage.

<?php wp_get_archives('title_li=&type=postbypost&limit=10'); ?>

How can I also get the content? I want to display the first 100 characters.

Help appreciated.

 

Read about it in the WordPress Codex. See The Loop for all the answers you are looking for.

 

there are some excerpts plugins which helps to display content on homepage with small excerpt, image and post link. you can try wp-utf8-excerpt plugin.

 

<?php the_content( __('<p>Read the rest of this entry &raquo;</p>', '150') ); ?>

 

There is more to it than just that. Need to set up the query loop, insert thumbnails (if wanted), bylines & meta (if wanted), category restrictions, etc. etc.

 

<?php the_content( __('<p>Read the rest of this entry &raquo;</p>', '100') ); ?>

 

That is what the other guy said. Read my answer, there is more to it than that.
