Hi,
How do I change the index.php to change the lower right screen to show a page or any custom page instead of showing recent post, comments, popular posts?
Thanks.

Sure, open up index.php and find this code:
<?php $show_special_items = new kriesi_list_post_items; $show_special_items -> recent_posts('<h4>latest blog entries</h4>'); $show_special_items -> recent_comments('<h4>recent comments</h4>'); $show_special_items -> popular_posts('<h4>most popular entries</h4>'); ?>Replace it with:
<?php $args = "'p' => 1"; $additional_loop = new WP_Query($args); while ($additional_loop->have_posts()) : $additional_loop->the_post(); the_title(); the_content(); endwhile; endif; ?>replace the 1 of $args = "'p' => 1"; in the first line with the ID of the page you want to show.

It didnt work... I want to replace it with either a page or a scroller... please help.
<div class="content_right">
<!-- latest blog, latest comment, most popular-->
<?php
$args = "'p' => 5";
$additional_loop = new WP_Query($args);
while ($additional_loop->have_posts()) : $additional_loop->the_post();
the_title();
the_content();
endwhile; endif;
?></div><!--end content_right-->
</div><!--end main-->Posted 2 years ago # -
Sorry made a mistake with the $args code (the way I've written it is how you would put it into an array). Change this:
$args = "'p' => 1";to this:
$args = "page_id=1";replacing the 1 with the ID of the page you want to display.
If you want to include a scroller this would involve more work, it would be easier to custom code your scroller and include the page instead of the $additional_loop code.

Hi jenmattuchio,
You would need to tell us what theme you're using before we could answer that question. Some themes come with a pre-built widget for display recent posts, others may not.
If you will create a new thread in your theme's forum and we'll be glad to answer.

Create a new thread and tell me what problems you are encountering and what you want to know. 
There is no step 3 :)
