Page and Page Navigaton Problem - All pages are showing the same thing

[grapefruit]

This is my problem:

If a create a new page the page displays the content I have on my Frontpage (last added posts that are shown on the frontpage) and not the content I added in the new page I created??

Also when I use the navigation on the bottom of my frontpage, (the links at the bottom to go back to earlier post: /page/2/, /page/3/, /page/4/ , they ALSO just show the content I have on my frontpage??


My website is: http://www.bestenettbutikker.no/

And the problem can be seen for exmaple like this. See the content on the frontpage, and then you see the same content on for example this page: http://www.bestenettbutikker.no/page/2/

But it's the same for all pages really.

How to fix this?

Need help. thanks.

Sorry. I seem to have fixed it I think.
Can be closed now. Sorry..

I think it was because I used this code:
<?php query_posts('showposts=5'); ?>

I have new and different questions though:

1. How can I get to only show the first 5 posts on the homepage?

2. How can I only show some content on the FRONTPAGE/HOMEPAGE ONLY?

I can't get this code to work:

<?php if (is_home()) { ?>
Welcome, you will only see this message on my homepage!
<?php } ?>

This code normally workds. But when I place it inside the index.php and below the <div id="im-mainContent" class="im-mainContent">

It still shows up on these pages: page/2/, page/3/, page/4/ and so on, WHY?


Many thanks if anyone can help me figure these things out.

Hi,

1. Go to Dashboard>Settings>Reading and change the number of posts you want to display on the page.

2. It depends on what exactly you want. Do you want one of your posts to show only on the homepage, or all of them to show only on the homepage? One way to keep content on one page only is to set it as a static page (regular WP page, not a post), but since you're using the blog roll that isn't an option.

Let us know,
