Wordpress blog post

Hello there Zac Gordon got another question about creating a wordpress theme. Been following along with it but can't get my blog post link to display the first,second and third blog that I created. Is there any way I can resolve this?

You'll have to tag Zac if you want him to see it. ex. (Steven Prescott ) If you're having trouble with a code challenge or just with your code, then the rest of us will be happy to help. Just show us what you`re working with.

Could you let me know exactly what video you're at at the moment?

The single.php file is the one that controls an individual blog post html.

Thanks Steven!

Here's an article about designing headers for WordPress. I think you might find it interesting. http://codex.wordpress.org/Designing_Headers

i check with my front-page.php file and realise the whole slide on the homepage was implemented by the custom ui plugin that i installed but then can do i get it to work?

```php </div> <div id="featured" class="clearfix flexslider">

    <ul class="slides">
    <?php 
        $args = array(
            'post_type' => 'work'
        );
        $slideshow_query = new WP_Query( $args );          
    ?>          
    <?php if ( have_posts() ) : while ( $slideshow_query->have_posts() ) : $slideshow_query->the_post(); ?>
        <li style="background-color: <?php the_field('background_color'); ?>">
            <div class="container">
                <div class="grid_8"><img src="<?php the_field('homepage_slider_image'); ?>"></div>
                <div id="featured-info" class="grid_4 omega">
                    <h5>Featured Project</h5>
                    <h3 style="color: <?php the_field('button_color'); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></h3>
                    <p><?php the_field('description'); ?></p>
                    <p><a class="btn blue" style="background-color: <?php the_field('button_color'); ?>" href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>">View Project &rarr;</a></p>
                </div>```
